Answer from AI

For streaming data reading from a file on Android, classes like InputStream and BufferedReader are usually used, which allow reading data in parts without loading the entire file into memory.

Example of reading a file line by line using BufferedReader:

try (BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(file)))) {
    String line;
    while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
        // Process the line
        System.out.println(line);
    }
} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

This approach allows efficient processing of large files without overloading memory, and works with data as it is read.
