I am implementing an fft algorithm in java and would like to clear
this point up. I am reading a 16 bit wav file with format :

        
      float sampleRate = 16000; //8000,11025,16000,22050,44100
      int sampleSizeInBits = 16; //8,16
      int channels = 1; //1,2
      boolean signed = true; //true,false
      boolean bigEndian = false

i am looking to read the file into an array to manipulate it. Each
sample is 16 bit represented by two 8 bit bytes. . if i use the code
below am i reading the file accurately, i want to end up with an array
of integers in the range + or - 16000.:
File fileIn = new File(name);
         try {

        AudioInputStream audioInputStream =
                              AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(fileIn);
          
           byte[] Sample1= null;
                 // lines.removeAllElements(); // clear the old
vector
                AudioFormat format = audioInputStream.getFormat();
            if (Sample == null) {
                try {
                    Sample1 = new byte[
                        (int) (audioInputStream.getFrameLength()
                        * format.getFrameSize())];
                    audioInputStream.readSamples(Sample1);
                } catch (Exception ex) {
                 // reportStatus(ex.toString());
                    return;
                }
            }
            
             Sample = new double[Sample1.length];
            for(int jl=0;jl<Sample1.length;jl++){
                    Sample[jl] =Sample1[jl];
            }
         
       nSamples = Sample1.length;
      
            
            } catch (Exception e) {
         System.out.println(e);

I believe that for the new guy this code would be readable, and identifying problems should really not be any more difficult with this, plus I think that it actually might save some time to write the actual code from the beginnig, even though it's not at it's final stage, instead of first writing everything spread out, and then rewriting the same code again cleaned. ...
