        {
            using (StreamWriter w = new StreamWriter(fs, Encoding.UTF8))
            {
                // Write a decimal, string, and char.
                w.WriteLine(124.23M);

            {
                // Read the data and convert it to the appropriate data type.
                Console.WriteLine(Decimal.Parse(r.ReadLine()));
                Console.WriteLine(r.ReadLine());
                Console.WriteLine(Char.Parse(r.ReadLine()));
