this is a java program which I am working on but it has been along time since I used java and am really lost.  I am suppose to code the sections which I marked in the project  please help me. 

import java.io.File;

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

import java.io.FileWriter;

import java.io.IOException;

import java.util.Arrays;

import java.util.Scanner;

* Read in a file containing student records and create an array of Student

* objects

* @param file The filename

* @param num The number of students in the file

* @return An array of Student objects

*/

static Student[] readStudentsFromFile(String filename, int num) {

try (Scanner in = new Scanner(new File(filename))) {

Student[] students = new Student[num];

// YOUR CODE HERE

// Hints:

// To read a line from the file you can call 

//String line = in.nextLine();

// The split method of the String class might come in handy to get the fields

return students;

} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

return null;

}

}

try (FileWriter out = new FileWriter(filename)) {

// YOUR CODE HERE

// Hints:

// To write a line to the file you can call 

//   out.write(“Hello World!” + “n”);

} catch (IOException e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

}
