15.18.3.The Byte Stream Classes and The Character Stream Wrapper Classes

The Byte Stream Classes

Stream Class	Description
BufferedStream	Wraps a byte stream and adds buffering.
FileStream	A byte stream designed for file I/O.
MemoryStream	A byte stream that uses memory for storage.

The Character Stream Wrapper Classes.

To create a character stream, wrap a byte stream inside one of C#'s character stream wrappers.

The abstract classes TextReader and TextWriter are at the top of the character stream hierarchy.
TextReader handles input.
TextWriter handles output.
