❔ ✅ SreamReader vs. TextReader
Given i want to program a reader that is efficient so i will read by a character not by line or whole text file should i use stream or text reader i know from docs that TextReader -> StreamReader and they both have function .read() so how should i decide which one.
And should i use a cobination with stringbuilder when i want to count the number of words

TextReader is an abstract class so you can't use it directly
And StreamReader inherits from TextReader actually
So SR is just a realization of TR
If you want it to be efficient, you’ll want to read from disk in buffers, usually 4096 bytes
by char will do
