Display BPM on console


Objetive:

The Netpbm format is a family of image file formats designed with simplicity in mind, rather than small size. They can represent color, grayscale, or black and white images using plain text (even though a binary variant exists).

For example, a black and white image coded in ASCII is represented using the header "P1".

The following line (optional) might be a comment, preceded with #.

The next line contains the width and height of the image.

The remaining line(s) contain the data: 1 for black points and 0 for white points, as in this example:

P1

This is an example bitmap of the letter "J"
6 10
0 0 0 0 1 0
0 0 0 0 1 0
0 0 0 0 1 0
0 0 0 0 1 0
0 0 0 0 1 0
0 0 0 0 1 0
1 0 0 0 1 0
0 1 1 1 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0

(that would be the content of a file named "j.pbm").

Create a program to decode an image file like this and display it on the screen using only the console. Remember that the comment is optional.


Code:

import java.util.*;
public class Main
{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		String fileName;
		String data;
		String line;
		int width;
		int height;

		System.out.println("Enter the file name: ");
		fileName = new Scanner(System.in).nextLine();
		if (!fileName.contains(".pbm"))
		{
			fileName += ".pbm";
		}

		if (!(new java.io.File(fileName)).isFile())
		{
			System.out.println("File not found!");
			return;
		}

		// File reading
		try
		{
			java.io.FileReader myFile = new java.io.FileReader(fileName);
			java.io.BufferedReader myFileBufferedReader = new java.io.BufferedReader(myFile);

			line = myFileBufferedReader.readLine();
			if (!line.equals("P1"))
			{
				System.out.println("Does not seem a B&W ASCII PBM");
				return;
			}
			System.out.println("Found B&W ASCII PBM");

			// Width and height
			line = myFileBufferedReader.readLine();
			if ((line.length() > 1) && (line.charAt(0) == '#'))
			{
				System.out.println("Comment: " + line.substring(1));
				line = myFileBufferedReader.readLine();
			}

			String[] widthheight = line.split("[ ]", -1);
			width = Integer.parseInt(widthheight[0]);
			height = Integer.parseInt(widthheight[1]);
			System.out.printf("width: %1$s" + "\r\n", width);
			System.out.printf("height: %1$s" + "\r\n", height);


			// Data reading (gathering all the lines in one)
			data = "";
			line = myFileBufferedReader.readLine();
			while (line != null)
			{
				data += line;
				line = myFileBufferedReader.readLine();
			}
			myFile.close();
		}
		catch (IOException problem)
		{
			System.out.println("File was not read properly");
			System.out.printf("Details: %1$s" + "\r\n", problem.getMessage());
			return;
		}

		// Delete spaces, so that ony 0 and 1 remain
		data = data.replace(" ", "");

		// And traversing the data, displaying them
		int pos = 0;
		for (char symbol : data)
		{
			// After the width, we must advance to the next line
			if (pos % width == 0)
			{
				System.out.println();
			}

			if (symbol == '1')
			{
				System.out.print("X");
			}
			else if (symbol == '0')
			{
				System.out.print(".");
			}

			pos++;
		}

		System.out.println();

	}
