Question

Can you please help me with C#.
I am trying to create a function in C# that opens a CSV file and save them to an array:

FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(guid.ToString(), FileMode.Open);
for (int i = 1; i > 200; i++) // it checks the first 200 lines
{
    int j = 0;
    string[] str = new string[j];
    do
    {                
        // saving each character to the variable until comma is found

    } while(str == '\n'); // read each character in a for loop until new line character found
}

Can you please help me out?

Answer 1

Something like this:

using (StreamReader r = new StreamReader(guid.ToString()))
{
    string line;
    int linesCount;
    ArrayList result = new ArrayList();
    while ((line = r.ReadLine()) != null && linesCount++ <= 200)
    {
         result.AddRange(line.Split(','));
    }
}
