File Splitter

 Description:          The following two programs split any specified file in size of specified size (in bytes).
 
Primary Inputs:    Name of the file to be divided and the desired size(in bytes) of the target parts.
Primary Output:    File part(s) of the size specified in input.
Platform Used:      JDK 1.6 with JCreator
