Hello guys, this is unpossible pog and and on youtube, this guy requested
me to make a code in java to perform update operation.

For
lot of you guys who don’t know, i made tutorials on how to use text
file as database using java.
I only made videos of inserting and
displaying data but not on how to update data.

When

Let

SO
this is my table structure with 5 columns.
this is my table structure with 5 columns.
And
here as you can see, that there can be multiple “SET” keywords
that can be applied to multiple columns, and same goes to “WHERE”
clouse, where there can be multiple condition and other complications
like “AND-OR” and “IN” and “EQUALS TO”.

Now
I shall explain the simplest one, in that there is only unique ID in
condition, but you can select multiple columns.

I
solved the problem of selecting which columns will be updated by
flagging is either as 0 or 1.

Now,
in previous tutorials, we wrote a code on now to insert and display

Because
the udate code is huge, I am going to create a new .java file, save
it as the same location where the text file is.

Now,
there are 4 phases,

If

gave.

In

We

In
abstract word, in phase it, we go to each row, and find out whether
it’s ID matches with ID that we enter, if no, then we skip the
change, but if YES, then we find which columns should be updated and
swap their values.
