title: input file cannot be found
body: <p>I am just messing around with reading input files with java until I got stumped at the most basic of steps... finding the input file!</p>
  
  <p>The input.txt file is in the same directory as my class file that is calling it yet eclipse still gives me an error that it cant be found:</p>
  
  <p>"Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem: 
  Unhandled exception type FileNotFoundException"</p>
  
  <p>My code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>package pa;
  import java.util.Scanner; 
  
  public class Project {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      java.io.File file = new java.io.File("input.txt");
      System.out.println(file.getAbsolutePath());
      Scanner input = new Scanner(file);
   }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>input.txt is in the same package, same folder and everything. I'm confused :(</p>
