Why do I get FileNotFoundException?

How to use stop words in a text file so that it does not get counted in a word count program using java?

• I have a text file from where the count of each words has to be displayed and words like "to,the,and" should not be counted. I have program for counting but i don't know to use stop words. Any help? This is the count program import java.util.Map; import java.util.Set; import java.util.TreeMap; import java.util.Date; public class count { public static void main(String[] file) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException { String filename = "D:\\filename.txt"; BufferedReader bufferedReader = null; bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(filename)); String inputLine = null; TreeMap<String, Integer> map = new TreeMap<String, Integer>(); try { while ((inputLine = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) { String[] words = inputLine.split("[ \n\t\r.,;:!?(){}]"); for (String word : words) { Integer frequency = map.get(word); if (frequency == null) { frequency = 0; } frequency++; map.put(word, frequency); } } System.out.println(map); } catch (IOException error) { System.out.println("Invalid File"); } finally { bufferedReader.close(); } } }

• Answer:

  Create a TreeSet and fill it with your stop words. Before entering the logic to increment the frequency of a word, check to see if your target word is in the stop word TreeSet. If it is, don't increment the counter.
