In Brief

  • Mono provides classes for managing files and directories.

  • Mono defines a difference between files and directory so that different classes have to be used.

  • I/O is based on streams.

  • Depending on the type of I/O, different kinds of streams must be used.

  • Binary files can help make your storage system more efficient.

  • Classes must be serialized before writing them to disk
