file merging

11y1.1kVisual Basic .NET

okay what i want to know to do is this, if i have 2 text files one that say looked like this:
qwert
asdfg
zxcvb

and another that looked like this:
hi
jo
john

connor

how could i merge it so it ended up looking like this :

qwerthi

qwertjo

qwertjohn

qwertconnor

asdfghi

asdfgjo

asdfgjohn

asdfgconnor

zxcvbhi

zxcvbjo

zxcvbjohn

zxcvbconnor

its a bit of a weird ask, and i would have done it myself, but im not sure where to start, thank you in advance.

(note there isn't any surrounding code, it will just this single task by itself)

take 2 variable like
string[] file1text, file1text;
in variable store the data from text file respectively and then use below code-

for (int i = 0; i < file1text.Length; i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < file2text.Length; j++)
{
Console.WriteLine(file1text[i] + "" + file1text[j]);
}
}

it may help you

Hi Ty,

Try this code

static void Main()
{
string[] lines1 = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(@"C:\Users\monica.v\Documents\Workspace\file1.txt");
string[] lines2 = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(@"C:\Users\monica.v\Documents\Workspace\file2.txt");
// Display the file contents by using a foreach loop.
for (int i = 0; i < lines1.Length; i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < lines2.Length; j++)
{
Console.WriteLine(lines1[i] + "" + lines2[j]);
}
}
Console.Read();
}

Please find the attached screenshot of the output.

Thanks.
