Courses Plus Student 5,535 PointsBummer! Did you pass the StreamReader constructor the 'fileName'?
Hi! So I'm at the code challenge and I got stuck here. I don't seem to figure out what am I doing wrong, although I did everything as in the video. Can anyone help me? Many thanks!
DirectoryInfo directory = new DirectoryInfo(System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory());
string fileName = Path.Combine(directory.FullName, "secretmessage.txt");
var file = new FileInfo(fileName);
if (file.Exists) {
using (var reader = new StreamReader(file.FullName)){
}
}

DirectoryInfo directory = new DirectoryInfo(System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory());
string fileName = Path.Combine(directory.FullName, "secretmessage.txt");
var file = new FileInfo(fileName);
if (file.Exists)
{
using(new StreamReader(fileName))
{
}
}
Checked it passed the challenge 1/2
