LOL thanks a lot :DI was trying to append to my file, , but I always overwrite itI always use to write to file in java (exactly the same way u did x'D) this video was straight to the goal x'DBut I didn't knew that I had to change FileWriter(File, true) to append to file, ,, instead I used PrintWriter.append() and it didn't work !P.S. (for any one who will get confused by my commet) : PrintWriter.append() not a static method !

How do I append to file and mix types in a method? Say I want to print a String and an integer.

I think if you write import java.io.*; you don't have to be importing specific Libraries every time you build a constructor. I think the " * " calls all Libraries in the java.io folder.

Two questions/comments:
1. Ever since adding the FileWriter code the if/else function no longer works. When happyFile.txt does NOT exist the "The file already exists" shows up in console. So it seems the check for whether it already exists is somehow broken by adding the additional append code.

2. Lastly, I tried doing the append without the BufferedWriter object and it still appends. I just changed PrinterWriter to = new PrintWriter(fileWriter) instead of buffer.

BufferedWriter simply caches before writing, which is actually is completely unnecessary here.

Why can't you use stream.append("Some test here"); ?
