Find specific word in text file and count it

Question

someone can help me with code? How to search in text file any word and count how many it were repeated?

For example test.txt:

hi
hola
hey
hi
bye
hoola
hi

And if I want to know how many times are repeated in test.txt word "Hi" program must say "3 times repeated"

I hope you understood what I want, thank you for answers.

Solution 1

public int countWord(String word, File file) {
int count = 0;
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(file);
while (scanner.hasNextLine()) {
    String nextToken = scanner.next();
    if (nextToken.equalsIgnoreCase(word))
    count++;
}
return count;
}

Solution 2

HashMap h=new HashMap();                        
FileInputStream fin=new FileInputStream("d:\\file.txt");
BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fin));
String n;
while((n=br.readLine())!=null)
{
    if(h.containsKey(n))
    {
    int i=(Integer)h.get(n);
    h.put(n,(i+1));
    }
    else
    h.put(n, 1);
}

now iterate through this map to get the count for each word using each word as a key to the map values

            int tLen = testWord.length();
            int wordCntr = 0;
            String file = path + fileName;

public class Wordcount

       int count=0;

       String str="hi this is is is line";

       String []s1=str.split(" ");

       for(int i=0;i<=s1.length-1;i++)
