Reading double values from a text file in C#

Reading double values from a text file in C#

To read double values from a text file in C#, you can use the System.IO namespace to open the file, read its contents and parse the double values from the read string. Here's an example code snippet:

using System.IO; // Open the text file for reading using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader("file.txt")) { // Read the contents of the file string contents = reader.ReadToEnd(); // Split the contents into an array of strings by newline string[] lines = contents.Split(new[] { Environment.NewLine }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries); // Parse the double values from each line foreach (string line in lines) { if (double.TryParse(line, out double value)) { // Use the parsed double value as needed Console.WriteLine(value); } } }

In this example, we first open the text file for reading using the StreamReader class. We then read the entire contents of the file using the ReadToEnd method of the StreamReader class. We split the contents of the file into an array of strings using the Split method and then iterate over each line. For each line, we try to parse a double value using the TryParse method. If parsing is successful, we use the parsed value as needed.
