FileInputStream FIS= new FileInputStream(args[0]) it create some kind of reader to a file with name that specified in argument (args[0]). so this'll provide you an object to read a specified file. system.out.write(data) will output the data that the object read from 'FIS.read()' to console, so you can see what you try to read, data=FIS.read()' this is intentional, the read() function read the file byte by byte that's why its inside a loop
