c# - Read All Bytes Line By Line In .txt -

i need read in bytes on 1 line , throw them array, , move onto next line , on , forth.

for instance:

.txt file

word apple zzz 

now in program have read in first line bunch of bytes, , array consist of 4 elements. i'd processing , move on next line , on.

i have looked in many places no luck. ideally, need readallbytes() except instead of reading entire file need read 1 line.

edit: since going speed, cannot readalllines() or anything require me read string first , convert array of bytes.

edit2: have backtrack bit because understand not best @ explaining anything, try. ideally, how code work

loop through lines of txt file     loop through bytes on line         read byte , process         if need to, break loop , move on next line 

this give better understand of dilemma.

even though problem remains unsolved i'd still thank tried me: thank trying

assuming text file ascii:

var lines = file.readlines(@"c:\temp\foo.txt"); foreach (var line in lines) {     byte[] bytes = encoding.ascii.getbytes(line);     // processing byte array } 

updated readlines() based on comments.
