Hi All,

I am trying to create a console application that reads number from a file all underneath each other like so:

101 9

and then outputs into another file the closest palindrome number. So far what I have is not quite rightm i.e. I don't think I can put the class inside a method which is a bit more Java I was wandering if anyone could help at all?

Thanks :)

    class Program
    {
        static public void Main(string[] args)
        {

         try
         {
            StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter("C://Temp/PalindromeAnswers.txt");
            sw.WriteLine("Answers");
            sw.Close();
        }//try
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Exception: " + e.Message);
        }//catch
        #endregion

        #region ReadFile
        try
        {
            string numbers;

            StreamReader sr = new StreamReader("C://Temp/Palindrome.txt");

            numbers = sr.ReadLine();

            while (numbers != null)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(numbers);
                numbers = sr.ReadLine();
