System.out.println("Characters printed:"); // create new buffered reader

is.reset(); System.out.println("reset() invoked"); System .out.println((char)is.read());

System .out.println((char)is.read()); } else {

// if any I/O error occurs e.printStackTrace(); }finally{

// releases system resources associated with this stream if(is!=null)

is.close(); } } }

Assuming we have a text file c:/test.txt, which has the following content. This file will be used as an input for our example program:

ABCDE

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result:
