i trying read data text file , store array. assume there 1 word per line. getting nosuchelementexception here:

while (s.hasnextline())         {            text = text + s.next() + " ";        } 

this code:

public class readnote  {    public static void main(string[]args)     {          string text = readstring("countrylist.txt");       system.out.println(text);        string[] words = readarray("countrylist.txt");        (int = 0; < words.length; i++)        {          system.out.println(words[i]);       } }     public static string readstring(string file)    {         string text = "";         try{        scanner s = new scanner(new file(file));         while (s.hasnextline())         {            text = text + s.next() + " ";        }           } catch(filenotfoundexception e)             {               system.out.println("file not found ");            }         return text;    }     public static string[] readarray(string file)    {        int ctr = 0;         try {        scanner s1 = new scanner(new file(file));         while (s1.hasnextline())         {             ctr = ctr+1;             s1.next();        }         string[] words = new string[ctr];        scanner s2 = new scanner(new file(file));         ( int = 0; < ctr; i++)         {            words [i] = s2.next();        }          return words;      } catch (filenotfoundexception e) { }         return null;  } } 

here message.

    exception in thread "main" java.util.nosuchelementexception     @ java.util.scanner.throwfor(scanner.java:862)     @ java.util.scanner.next(scanner.java:1371)     @ readnote.readstring(readnote.java:29)     @ readnote.main(readnote.java:13) 

for specific exception getting in readstring:

while (s.hasnextline()) {   text = text + s.next() + " "; } 

you need either call s.hasnext() in loop guard, or use s.nextline() in body.
