title: Ignore a line while reading a file in java
body: <p>I have some code to read the lines from  a file, I would like to recognize when the line starts or the fisrt character (not blank) is '<code>*</code>' and ignore it, so inside the while statement add something like </p>
  
  <pre><code>if(line[0]=='*') 
     ignore that line
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have something like:  </p>
  
  <pre><code>   input = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(new File(finaName)));
      String line = null;
      while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
      String[] words = line.split(" "); 
          .... 
      }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How to complete the code?</p>
