I have this program that reads a file that looks like this :

1,2,3,6,7,8,9,4,5,

5,8,4,2,3,9,7,6,1,

9,6,7,1,4,5,3,2,8,

3,7,2,4,6,1,5,8,9,

6,9,1,5,8,3,2,7,4,

4,5,8,7,9,2,6,1,3,

8,3,6,9,2,4,1,5,7,

2,1,9,8,5,7,4,3,6,

7,4,5,3,1,6,8,9,2,

What i have to do is read the File display it on screen, and find a seqnce of numbers. So far i have this, but im having trouble getting the seqnce input, while trying to deal with the menue.
