I've got a file that contains this
5
0
-1,0
1,-1,0
-1,1,-1,0
-1,-1,-1,1,0
I have to ignore the 5 and the put the 0,1,and -1's in a 2D array.
Here is what I have tried and still can't get it.

FileInputStream fstream  = new FileInputStream("map5.txt");
      Scanner scan = new Scanner(fstream);
      DataInputStream In = new DataInputStream(fstream);
      BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(In));
		String line;
		
		
		while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
      {
        StringTokenizer line2 = new StringTokenizer(line, ",");
 
        while (line2.hasMoreTokens())
        {
   		int temp;
			temp = Integer.parseInt(line2.nextToken());   
			map[col][row] = temp;
         col++;
			row++;
        }
        
		 }

Don't see where you initialized row and col
Beside that where is your problem ?

probably miss a row++ and a col++ somehere

Here is what I have so far, just to show that I have initialized the row and col to zero.
It gives me this error
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 5
on my "map[col][row] = temp;" line, and I have absolutly NO idea how to solve it.

public class FindPath
{
	public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
	{
		
		
		Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
		//Read the file
		File inputfile = new File("map5.txt");
		Scanner file = new Scanner (inputfile);
		
		//Get the number of cities
		int numCities;
		numCities = file.nextInt();

		
		
		
		
		
		int start, end;
		//Get the starting city
		System.out.println("What is your starting city?");
		start = input.nextInt();
		
		
		//Get the Ending city
		System.out.println("What is the ending city?");
		end = input.nextInt();
		
		
		
		

		
		
		
		
		//2D array of the map.
		 int[][] map = new int[numCities][numCities];
		
		int col, row;
		col = 0;
		row = 0;
		    	  
		FileInputStream fstream  = new FileInputStream("map5.txt");
                Scanner scan = new Scanner(fstream);
                DataInputStream In = new DataInputStream(fstream);
                BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(In));
		String line;
		
		
		while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
      {
        StringTokenizer line2 = new StringTokenizer(line, ",");
 
        while (line2.hasMoreTokens())
        {
   		int temp;
			temp = Integer.parseInt(line2.nextToken());   
			map[col][row] = temp;
         col++;
			row++;
        }
        //row++;
		 }
		
		file.close();

Seriously, you posted a problem
You come back with a completly different code
What should we do ? Which code is the right one ? Which one gives you problem ?
Do you think we are magician guessing which code should be fixed ?
Make up your mind and we'll see what we can do.

Yeah, I can't fill the 2D array because it is giving me the error.
The second code is my full class.

[macosxnerd101]

Your variable placements are a little misleading for a 2D array. The first dimmension is the row, or 1D array; and the second dimmension is the column, or element within the 1D array.

map[col][row] = temp;  
col++;  
row++;  

Also, you should not be incrementing both variables in your inner loop. You are going diagonally across the array. After you adjust so you are reading into map[row][col], you should be incrementing col in the inner loop to go across the 1D array. Then at the end of your outer loop, you should be incrementing row to go to the next 1D array and reset col to 0, starting at the beginning of the next 1D array.

Lastly, be careful that row remains < map.length (the number of 1D arrays), and col < map[row].length, the number of elements in the 1D array.

Alright so I did do some modifying to the code

FileInputStream fstream  = new FileInputStream("map5.txt");
      Scanner scan = new Scanner(fstream);
      DataInputStream In = new DataInputStream(fstream);
      BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(In));
		String line;
		
		
		while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
      {
        StringTokenizer line2 = new StringTokenizer(line, ",");
 
        while (line2.hasMoreTokens())
        {
   		int temp;
			temp = Integer.parseInt(line2.nextToken());
			map[col][row] = temp;
			col++;
        }
        row++;
		  col = 0;
		 }

I made the col increment in the inner loop and when that is done I set col back to zero to go back to the start of each row, and it still gave me this error
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 5 at my "map[col][row] = temp;" line.
map[][] size is 5x5.

Remember that arrays are indexed from 0 to length-1. So if you have the length of one of the dimmensions is 5, you can only go from 0-4 for that dimmension. See my last post regarding checking the row and col variables against the corresponding lengths.
