Hi, i could not append this line

System.out.printf("  Term Frequency =  | %8.4f |",

(double) wordCount / totalCount );

to the JTextArea. What do i missing ?

I try to change to

_resultArea.append("  Term Frequency =  | %8.4f |",

(double) wordCount / totalCount ); 

but to no avail. :(

---

printf is not the same as println as the former formats the String in the same way that String.format(...) does, and this is how you solve it, call format on the String:

_resultArea.append(String.format("  Term Frequency =  | %8.4f |", (double) wordCount / totalCount)); 

For more on this, check out the String API and the Formatter API.

An aside, if you have a similar question in the future, don't paste so much code since most of the code you've posted above is completely unrelated to the problem at hand. The best code to post is an SSCCE, and this link will tell you all about this: SSCCE
