Question
Ask the user for a filename. Display the oldest car for every manufacturer from that file. If two cars have the same year, compare based on the VIN.

I have this code so far

import java.util.Comparator; import java.io.File; import java.io.FileNotFoundException; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Collections; import java.util.Scanner; class Car { String manufacturer; String model; int year; String vin; public Car(String manufacturer, String model, int year, String vin) { super(); this.manufacturer = manufacturer; this.model = model; this.year = year; this.vin = vin; } public String getManufacturer() { return manufacturer; } public void setManufacturer(String manufacturer) { this.manufacturer = manufacturer; } public String getModel() { return model; } public void setModel(String model) { this.model = model; } public int getYear() { return year; } public void setYear(int year) { this.year = year; } public String getVin() { return vin; } public void setVin(String vin) { this.vin = vin; } } class CarComparator implements Comparator<Car> { @Override public int compare(Car car1, Car car2) { return car1.getManufacturer().compareTo(car2.getManufacturer()); } } public class OldestCarsByMake { public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException { ArrayList<Car> cars = new ArrayList<Car>(); Scanner sc1 = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Enter filename"); String carFile = sc1.next(); File file = new File(carFile); Scanner sc2 = new Scanner(file); String[] carDetails = new String[4]; sc2.nextLine(); //Skipping header while (sc2.hasNext()) { String carLine = sc2.nextLine(); carDetails = carLine.split("\\s\\s\\s"); String manufacturer = carDetails[1]; String model = carDetails[2]; int year = Integer.parseInt(carDetails[3]); String vin = carDetails[4]; boolean flag = true; for (Car c : cars) { if (c.manufacturer.equals(manufacturer)) { flag = false; if (c.year > year) { c.setModel(model); c.setYear(year); c.setVin(vin); } else if (c.year == year) { if ((c.vin).compareTo(vin) > 0) { c.setModel(model); c.setYear(year); c.setVin(vin); } } } } if (flag) cars.add(new Car(manufacturer, model, year, vin)); } Collections.sort(cars, new CarComparator()); int spaces = 25; for (Car c : cars) { for (int i = 0; i < 20 - (c.manufacturer.length()); i++) System.out.print(" "); System.out.print(c.manufacturer); for (int i = 0; i < 20 - (c.model.length()); i++) System.out.print(" "); System.out.print(c.model); System.out.println(" " + c.year + " " + c.vin); } System.out.println(cars.size() + " result(s)"); } }

however it produces an error

Enter filename\n
car-list-3.txtENTER
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 1 out of bounds for length 1\n
\tat OldestCarsByMake.main(OldestCarsByMake.java:69)\n

it is supposed to display
