Java - DataInputStream readDouble() method

Description

The Java DataInputStream readDouble() method reads 8 bytes and returns one double value.

Declaration

Following is the declaration for java.io.DataInputStream.readDouble() method −

public final double readDouble()

Parameters

NA

Return Value

This method returns 8 bytes of input stream, interpreted as double.

Exception

  • IOException − If an I/O error occurs or the stream has been closed.

  • EOFException − If the stream reaches the end.

Example 1

The following example shows the usage of Java DataInputStream readDouble() method. We've created InputStream, DataInputStream, FileOutputStream and DataOutputStream reference. A double[] buf is initialized with some double values. A FileOutputStream object is created with a File. Then DataOutputStream is initialized with FileOutputStream object created before. Then double array is iterated to write double values to the dataoutputstream.

Once double arrays is fully written into the stream, we've flush the stream to store the values in the file. Now using FileInputStream and DataInputStream, we're reading the file written earlier. Now we're checking if DataInputStream object has data using available() method. Then using readDouble() method, we're reading every value as double. Finally we're closing all the streams.

import java.io.DataInputStream;
import java.io.DataOutputStream;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;

public class DataInputStreamDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
      InputStream is = null;
      DataInputStream dis = null;
      FileOutputStream fos = null;
      DataOutputStream dos = null;
      double[] dbuf = {65.56,66.89,67.98,68.82,69.55,70.37};
      
      try {
         // create file output stream
         fos = new FileOutputStream("F:\\test.txt");
         
         // create data output stream
         dos = new DataOutputStream(fos);
         
         // for each byte in the buffer
         for (double d:dbuf) {
         
            // write double to the data output stream
            dos.writeDouble(d);         
         }
         
         // force bytes to the underlying stream
         dos.flush();
         
         // create file input stream
         is = new FileInputStream("F:\\test.txt");
         
         // create new data input stream
         dis = new DataInputStream(is);
         
         // read till end of the stream
         while(dis.available()>0) {
         
            // read double
            double c = dis.readDouble();
            
            // print
            System.out.print(c + " ");
         }
         
      } catch(Exception e) {
         // if any I/O error occurs
         e.printStackTrace();
      } finally {
         // releases all system resources from the streams
         if(is!=null)
            is.close();
         if(dos!=null)
            is.close();
         if(dis!=null)
            dis.close();
         if(fos!=null)
            fos.close();
      }
   }
}

Output

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

65.56 66.89 67.98 68.82 69.55 70.37

The following example shows the usage of Java DataInputStream readDouble() method. We've created InputStream, DataInputStream, FileOutputStream and DataOutputStream reference. A double[] buf is initialized with some double values. A FileOutputStream object is created with a File. Then DataOutputStream is initialized with FileOutputStream object created before. Then double array is iterated to write double values to the dataoutputstream.

Once double arrays is fully written into the stream, we've flush the stream to store the values in the file. Now using FileInputStream and DataInputStream, we're reading the file written earlier. Now we're checking if DataInputStream object has data using available() method. Then using readDouble() method, we're reading every value as double. Now as a special case, we're closing the stream before reading the values to see if this methods throw exception or not. As a result, we can see the available() method throws the exception.

         // close the streams
         is.close();
         dis.close();
         
         // read till end of the stream
         while(dis.available()>0) {
         
            // read double
            double c = dis.readDouble();
            
            // print
            System.out.print(c + " ");

         if(fos!=null)
            fos.close();
      }

}

Output
