Spiting up text ,adding it to table

Question

I got problem I try to split up text (orginal format is city#country#capitalcityname for example: Krakow#Poland#Warsaw) how can I split up text after # ? I want to put text after it into a table, is list a good idea ?

public class WordSearch {
ArrayList<String> list= new ArrayList<>();
    public WordSearch(){

        try {

             File file = new File ("songs.txt");
            BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
            String line = null;
            while((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
            list.add(line);
//            System.out.println(line);
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            System.out.println(e.getLocalizedMessage());
        }
    }   
       public ArrayList<String> getList() {
        return list;
    }
}

To make it more clear I add visual example of table

Answer 1

You can use split() method:

 String s="Krakow#Poland#Warsaw";
  String[] parts = s.split("#");

The output :

for (String i: parts)
    System.out.println(i);

==>

run:

Krakow
Poland
Warsaw

You can use the split() method.

String[] list = text.split("#");
