Multiple String loading

Programming Questions

hey. I guess this is pretty simple but I don't get it anway :( Hopefully anyone can help me out with this:

When I want to load a textfile i have to add the breaks ( \n) happening here

for (int i=0; i < news.length; i++)
{
s += news[i] + "\n";
println (s);
}

Well this works perfectly as long as I got only one textfile. My problem is that I now have about 15 files and I don't want to start my script with 15 times for…

Is there a way I can compress it in 2 for loops, my idea was:

for ( int j=0;j < 15; j++)
{
for (int i=0; i < news[j].length; i++)
{
s[j] += news[j][i] + "\n";
println (s[j]);
}

But this couldn't work because "s" isn't an array…

is there something I can do to get this to work?

best regards

I couldn't resist the temptation....

String[] theNamesOfMy15Files = {
"Fili", "Kili", "Oin", "Gloin", "Thorin Oakenshield", "Dwalin", "Balin", "Bifur", "Bofur", "Bombur", "Dori", "Nori", "Ori"
};
String news="";
String s="";
for ( int j=0;j < theNamesOfMy15Files.length; j++)
{
news = loadStrings (theNamesOfMy15Files[j]);
s="";
println(theNamesOfMy15Files[j]);
for (int i=0; i < news.length; i++)
{
s += news[i] + "\n";
println (s);
} // for
println();
} // for

and yes, only 13, I know...

anyway, this gives you just the text as println
s is empty then....

but when s is empty I don't have the text including the breaks to go on working with it, do I ?

this preserves s

String[] theNamesOfMy15Files = {
"Fili", "Kili", "Oin", "Gloin", "Thorin Oakenshield", "Dwalin", "Balin", "Bifur", "Bofur", "Bombur", "Dori", "Nori", "Ori"
};
String[] news;
String s ="=======================";
for ( int j=0;j < 13; j++)
{
news = loadStrings (theNamesOfMy15Files[j]);
s += theNamesOfMy15Files[j] + ": \n";
for (int i=0; i < news.length; i++)
{
s += news[i] + "\n";
} // for
s += "------------------------------------- \n";
s += "\n";
} // for
println (s);

or get s as an array

(preserved)

(s must be as long as theNamesOfMy15Files or longer )

String[] theNamesOfMy15Files = {
"Fili", "Kili", "Oin", "Gloin", "Thorin Oakenshield", "Dwalin", "Balin", "Bifur", "Bofur", "Bombur", "Dori", "Nori", "Ori"
};
String[] news;
String[] s = {
"=======================", "", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", "",
"", "", "", "", ""
};
for ( int j=0;j < 2; j++)
{
news = loadStrings (theNamesOfMy15Files[j]);
s[j] += theNamesOfMy15Files[j] + ": \n";
for (int i=0; i < news.length; i++)
{
s[j] += news[i] + "\n";
} // for
s[j] += "------------------------------------- \n";
// s[j] += "\n";
} // for
// --------------------------------------------------------
for ( int j=0;j < 2; j++) {
println (j+": "+s [j]);
}
