Reading an writing test files in csharp

Writing to a Text File
Listing 1: Writing Text Data to a File: TextFileWriter.cs

using System;
using System.IO;
 
namespace csharp_station.howto
{
    class TextFileWriter
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // create a writer and open the file
            TextWriter tw = new StreamWriter("date.txt");
 
            // write a line of text to the file
            tw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now);
 
            // close the stream
            tw.Close();
        }
    }
}

Reading From a Text File

Listing 2 shows how to read from a text file:
Listing 2: Reading Text Data from a File: TextFileReader.cs

using System;
using System.IO;
 
namespace csharp_station.howto
{
    class TextFileReader
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // create reader & open file
            Textreader tr = new StreamReader("date.txt");
 
            // read a line of text
            Console.WriteLine(tr.ReadLine());
 
            // close the stream
            tr.Close();
        }
    }
}
