Read From File Using StreamReader Class

In this post we explained how to write text to a file in C#. Today we will explain reading text from a file using the StreamReader class.
So create a file "text.txt" in the same directory where is the executable of the project. We will create a C# Console Application.
First, we must include this namespace, to use the StreamReader class

using System.IO;

Then write this code in the place where you want your program to read the file

StreamReader sr = new StreamReader("text.txt");
string line;
 
while ((line = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
{
    Console.WriteLine(line);
}

With this code we read the text written in the file "text.txt" line by line, and print it on the console.
Simple as that.
