I am doing a lab where we have to read in an external file, take some statistics on the data, and then create and write a new file with the stats. Everything in my program works except for writing the file, which I cannot understand why my method won't work.
BufferedWriter writer;
public void writeStats(int word,int numSent, int shortest, int longest, int average)
{
try
{
File file = new File("jefferson_stats.txt");
file.createNewFile();
writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(file));
writer.write("Number of words: " + word );
writer.newLine();
writer.write("Number of sentences: " + numSent );
writer.newLine();
writer.write("Shortest sentence: " + shortest + " words");
writer.newLine();
writer.write("Longest sentence: " + longest + " words");
writer.newLine();
writer.write("Average sentence: " + average + " words");
}
catch(FileNotFoundException e)
{
System.out.println("File Not Found");
System.exit( 1 );
}
catch(IOException e)
{
System.out.println("something messed up");
System.exit( 1 );
}
}

You have to flush and close your Writer
writer.flush();
writer.close();
