Description

Reads data from the the underlying stream. Use Read to read data from the stream.

There are 3 overloaded Read methods:

• The first one, which is parameterless, reads the next character from the underlying stream, advances to the current position, and returns it. If there is no character to read, the method returns -1.
• The second one, which has 3 parameters, reads Count characters starting at the Index character from a char array Buffer.
• The third one, which also has 3 parameters, reads Count Bytes starting with Index from a Byte array Buffer.
