Question

It should have reached the end of file, but it hasn’t.
Instead I’m getting this weird string which isn’t an empty string nor does it appear to be spaces. Here’s a picture of what I”m getting from the debugger.

while ( (nextLine = csvReader.readLine()) != null && (nextLine != "")) {
...
}

Answer 1

Try,

while( (nextLine = csvReader.readLine()) != null && !nextLine.equals("")) {
...
}
