Java Reading input from a text file that has multiple columns

This is an example of the text that I need to manipulate:

YEAR (space) MONTH (space) NAME (space)

YEAR (space) MONTH (space) NAME (space)

YEAR (sapce) MONTH (space) NAME (space)

YEAR (sapce) MONTH (space) NAME (space) ...

How would one go about creating an array using only the values in one column? e.g the second column (months) or the last column (names)

Take a look at the java.util.Scanner class, specifically the hasNext and next methods.

read each line and split on space, and reformat the array..

read each line and use a substring to add to the array..

read each line and use regular expression..
