Read a text file

Here is an easy way to read the entire contents of a text file into a string array in C#

Use File.ReadAllLines() to read the file into memory

Pass ReadAllLines() the path to the text file. It will return a string array with each line in the file an element in the array.

 

var contents = File.ReadAllLines(inputFilePath);
