find the size of a json file in csharp

To find the size of a JSON file in C#, you can use the FileInfo class from the System.IO namespace. The FileInfo class provides several properties for working with files, including Length, which returns the size of the file in bytes.

Here's an example code snippet:

main.cs
using System;
using System.IO;

class Program 
{
    static void Main(string[] args) 
    {
        string path = @"C:\path\to\file.json";
        FileInfo fileInfo = new FileInfo(path);
        long fileSizeInBytes = fileInfo.Length;
        Console.WriteLine($"File size: {fileSizeInBytes} bytes");
    }
}
309 chars
14 lines

In this example, we create a new FileInfo object for the JSON file at the specified path. We then access the Length property of the FileInfo object to get the size of the file in bytes, and print it to the console.
