I have written exact code in VB and C #, but its working principle is not the same … The logic is exactly the same … I hope so

For i As Integer = 0 To firstFile.numberOfSeries-1
for (int i = 0; i 
I think the direct C# translation is:

for (int i = 0; i <= firstfile.numberofseries-1; i++)
or better:

for (int i = 0; i 

Newbie to C# and trying to expand my abilities. I have this code in VB:

Private Sub BreakdownFilesToCompare(ByRef file1BReader As BinaryReader, _
 ByRef file2BReader As BinaryReader, _
 ByRef firstFile As StandardFormatFile, _
 ByRef secondFile As StandardFormatFile)

 file1BReader.ReadInt32()
 file2BReader.ReadInt32()

 firstFile.numberOfSeries = file1BReader.ReadInt32
 secondFile.numberOfSeries = file2BReader.ReadInt32

 If firstFile.numberOfSeries <> secondFile.numberOfSeries Then
 WriteToConsole("The number of Elements the two files do not match...Stopping")
 Exit Sub
 End If

 For i As Integer = 0 To firstFile.numberOfSeries-1
 
 Dim tempSeriesData1 As New StandardFormatFileSeries
 Dim tempSeriesData2 As New StandardFormatFileSeries

 tempSeriesDa ta1.standardNumOfElements = file1BReader.ReadInt32
 tempSeriesData1.standardSeriesName = GetSeriesName(file1BReader)

 tempSeriesData2.standardNumOfElements = file2BReader.ReadInt32
 tempSeriesData2.standardSeriesName = GetSeriesName(file2BReader) 

 For j As Integer = 0 To tempSeriesData1.standardNumOfElements-1
 Dim tempElementData1 As New StandardFormatFileElement


 tempElementData1.standardX_TimeValue = file1BReader.ReadSingle
 tempElementData1.standardY_SampleValue = file1BReader.ReadSingle
 tempSeriesData1.standardDataElements.Add(tempElementData1)
 Next

 For k As Integer = 0 To tempSeriesData2.standardNumOfElements-1
 Dim tempElementData2 As New StandardFormatFileElement

 tempElementData2.standardX_TimeValue = file2BReader.ReadSingle
 tempElementData2.stand ardY_SampleValue = file2BReader.ReadSingle

 tempSeriesData2.standardDataElements.Add(tempElementData2)



 Next

 firstFile.standardSeriesData. Add(tempSeriesData1)
 secondFile.standardSeriesData.Add(tempSeriesData2)


 Next
End Sub


Private Function GetSeriesName (ByRef bReader As BinaryReader) As String
 Dim enc As New System.Text.UTF8Encoding()
 Dim title As Byte()

 title = bReader.ReadBytes(128)< br /> Return enc.GetString(title)

End Function

Now this is what I have in C#

private void compareStandardFormat(ref BinaryReader file1breader,ref BinaryReader file2breader,
 ref FileStructure firstfile,ref FileStructure secondfile)
 {
 file1breader.ReadInt32();
 file2breader.ReadInt32(); 

 firstfile.numberofseries = file1breader.Re adInt32();
 secondfile.numberofseries = file2breader.ReadInt32();

 if (firstfile.numberofseries != secondfile.numberofseries)
 {
 writeToConsole("The number of Elements the two files do not match...Stopping");
 return;
 }

 for (int i = 0; i  {
 StandardFormatFileSeries tempseriesdata1 = new StandardFormatFileSeries();
 StandardFormatFileSeries tempseriesdata2 = new StandardFormatFileSeries();

 tempseriesdata1.standardnumofelements = file1breader.ReadInt32();< br /> tempseriesdata1.standardseriesname = getSeriesName(ref file1breader).Trim();

 tempseriesdata2.standardnumofelements = file2breader.ReadInt32();
 tempseriesdata2.standardseriesname = getSeriesName(ref file2breader).Trim ();

 for (int j = 0; j  {
 StandardFormatFileElement tempElementData1 = new StandardFormatFileElement();

 tempElementData1.standardx_timevalue = Convert.ToString (file1breader.ReadSingle());
 tempElementData1.standardy_samplevalue = Convert.ToString(file1breader.ReadSingle());

 tempseriesdata1.standarddataelements.Add(tempElementData1);
 }

 for (int k = 0; k  {
 StandardFormatFileElement tempElementData2 = new StandardFormatFileElement();

 tempElementData2.standardx_timevalue = Convert.ToString(file2breader.ReadSingle ());
 tempElementData2.standardy_samplevalue = Convert.ToString(file2breader.ReadSingle());

 tempseriesdata2.standarddataelements.Add(tempElementData2);
 }

 firstfile.standardseriesdata.Add(tempseriesdata1);
 secondfile.standardseriesdata.Add(tempseriesdata2);
 }

 }

 private string getSeriesName(ref BinaryReader bReader)
 {
 UTF8Encoding enc = new UTF8Encoding();
 byte[] title;

 title = bReader .ReadBytes(128);

 return enc.GetString(title);

 }

The VB method correctly reads the binary reader and indexes it correctly The next position... C# doesn’t work. It lost track after the first iteration... Why???

Please help.

< p>I think these are different:

For i As Integer = 0 To firstFile.numberOfSeries-1
for (int i = 0; i 
I think the direct C# translation is:

for (int i = 0; i <= firstfile.numberofseries -1; i++)
Or better:

for (int i = 0; i
