Remove newline-character

Question

I have a file which looks like this:

I want to read it in and remove the newline characters. My attempt is this:

StreamReader reader = new StreamReader("t.txt");
string text = reader.ReadToEnd();
text.Replace(System.Environment.NewLine, " ");
Console.WriteLine(text);

But the output is still the same as above. I want the output to be:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

What am I doing wrong?

Strings are immutable, the string being returned by replace should be formatted like you expect.

Maybe OP could need a code example ;-) – Nikolaus Mar 10 '19 at 21:56

i.e. `text = text.Replace(System.Environment.NewLine, " ");` – stuartd Mar 10 '19 at 22:07
