Save the source code in “FileReverseWord.java”. "Need a java program asap"

Explanation / Answer

FileReverseWord.java

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.PrintStream;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class FileReverseWord{

  
   public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException {
           Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
       System.out.println("Enter file name: ");
       String fileName = scan.next();
      
       StringBuffer finalsb = new StringBuffer();
       File file = new File(fileName);
       if(file.exists()){
           int numberOfLines = 0;
           int numberOfCharacters = 0;
           int numberOfWords = 0;
           Scanner scan1 = new Scanner(file);;
           while(scan1.hasNextLine()){
               StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
              
               String s = scan1.nextLine();
               sb.append(s);
              
               numberOfLines++;
               numberOfCharacters = numberOfCharacters + s.length();
               String words[] = s.split(" ");
               numberOfWords = numberOfWords + words.length;
               finalsb.append(sb.reverse());
               finalsb.append(" ");
           }
           System.out.println("Number of characters: "+numberOfCharacters);
           System.out.println("Number of words: "+numberOfWords);
           System.out.println("Number of lines : "+numberOfLines);
           PrintStream ps =new PrintStream(file);
          
           ps.print(finalsb.toString());
           ps.flush();
           ps.close();
           System.out.println("Data written to the file "+fileName);
   }
       else{
           System.out.println("File does not exist");
       }
      
      
      
   }

}

Output:

Enter file name:
D:\Test1.txt
Number of characters: 22
Number of words: 6
Number of lines : 2
Data written to the file D:\Test1.txt
