Question

I’ve got a textfile which contains the following data:

name = Very well sir
age = 23
profile = none
birthday= germany
manufacturer = Me

And I want to get the profile, birthday and manufacturer value but can’t seem to get it right. I succeded including the file into my program but there it stops. I just can’t figure out how I will clean the textfile up.

Here’s my current code: http://sv.paidpaste.com/HrQXbg

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        var data = File
            .ReadAllLines("test.txt")
            .Select(x => x.Split('='))
            .Where(x => x.Length > 1)
            .ToDictionary(x => x[0].Trim(), x => x[1]);

        Console.WriteLine("profile: {0}", data["profile"]);
        Console.WriteLine("birthday: {0}", data["birthday"]);
        Console.WriteLine("manufacturer: {0}", data["manufacturer"]);
    }
}
