Is there a specific reason not to use File.ReadAllText() method? MSDN Reference: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.file.readalltext(v=vs.110).aspx

Example No 1

C#

// Use string Join to concatenate the string elements.

string result = string.Join("\n", lines);

Example No 2

C#

// Concatenate all the elements into a StringBuilder.

StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
foreach (string value in lines)
{
    builder.Append(value);
    builder.Append('.');
}
string result = builder.ToString();
