This C# program is used to read lines from a file until the end of file is reached. We have defined the path of the file using ‘path’ variable. Using if condition statement check the path exists or not.

If the path exists then execute if condition statement and delete the path of the file. The StreamWriter writes text files and this program read lines from a file that is created. Print the read and end lines of a file.
