    <p>Given an input file (ASCII text only), compress it using a Sliding Window algorithm. Here is an outline of the steps you might follow:</p> <pre><code>Read the file into an ArrayList of Characters Initialize the window to the first N characters of the ArrayList where 0 &lt; N &lt; 256. The window can be another ArrayList or it can be index markers that point to a beginning and ending position within the main ArrayList. You get to choose your approach. See if the next byte after the window is contained in the window. If so, then Scan forward and keep track of how many chars match Go to next occurance of first byte Scan forward and keep track of how many chars match Do this for all occurances of first byte within the window and use the position that has the highest match length. Write special marker, position, and match length to output file If not, then Write next byte to output file Slide the window forward either by one character or match length, depending on what you found in step 3 Close the output file </code></pre> <p>I think my problem is that for every character in the input file, I am writing that character twice to the output file. </p> <p>My Code:</p> <pre><code>public void compressAndSaveAs() throws IOException { //new FileWriter FileWriter output = new FileWriter("MuffinManCompressed.txt"); (get length of window from user and set equal to windowSize) //creates an array to compare with the window array ArrayList &lt;Character&gt; comparisonArray = new ArrayList &lt;Character&gt; (); int ind = 0; for (int i = 0; i + windowSize + 1 &lt; fileArray.size(); i++) { for (int b = ind; b &lt;= windowSize + ind; b++) { window.add(fileArray.get(b)); } ind++; comparisonArray.add(fileArray.get(i + windowSize + 1)); int placeHolder = i; int marker = 0; i = 0; char test = comparisonArray.get(i); while (window.contains(test)) { i++; if ((i + windowSize + 1) &gt;= fileArray.size()) { break; } comparisonArray.add(fileArray.get(i + windowSize + 1)); test = comparisonArray.get(i); marker++; } i = placeHolder; System.out.print(i); System.out.println(window); if (marker &lt; 4 &amp;&amp; i == 0) { for (int length = 0; length &lt; window.size(); length++) { try { output.write(window.get(length)); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } for (int a = 0; a &lt; comparisonArray.size(); a++) { try { output.write(comparisonArray.get(a)); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } comparisonArray.clear(); window.clear(); } else if (i == 0 &amp;&amp; marker &gt;= 4){ for (int length = 0; length &lt; window.size(); length++) { try { output.write(window.get(length)); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } try { output.write((int) 36); String firstFactor = Integer.toString(window.indexOf(comparisonArray.get(0))); String secondFactor = Integer.toString(comparisonArray.size()); output.write(firstFactor); output.write(", "); output.write(secondFactor); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } comparisonArray.clear(); window.clear(); } else if (i != 0 &amp;&amp; marker &gt;= 4){ try { output.write(window.get(window.size() - 1)); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } try { output.write((int) 36); String firstFactor = Integer.toString(window.indexOf(comparisonArray.get(0))); String secondFactor = Integer.toString(comparisonArray.size()); output.write(firstFactor); output.write(", "); output.write(secondFactor); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } comparisonArray.clear(); window.clear(); } else if (i != 0 &amp;&amp; marker &lt; 4){ try { output.write(window.get(window.size() - 1)); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } try { output.write(comparisonArray.get(comparisonArray.size() - 1)); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } comparisonArray.clear(); window.clear(); } output.close(); } </code></pre>

    2. COThis is a lot of code and it is not clear from your question what exactly is the problem. Please go over it again, post only the minimal compileable code that still demonstrate the problem - and explicitly say what the issue is in the problem description.

    3. COWelcome to SO. Please read the [FAQ] and [Ask] for tips on writing good questions. Hint: You must show some evidence of having made an effort to solve your problem, such as debugging in an IDE. Just posting your code, saying there's a problem and asking others to debug it will not work here.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
