[nfbcs] Trivia game help

Hello Taylor,

What is in your question input text file? 
You are looping through each line of the input file, each time asking the same question about when VoiceOver was introduced and then writing one line from the input file, which seems a little unusual.

You are also testing the text the user entered against the string "CorrectAnswer", rather than comparing it to the contents of the string variable named CorrectAnswer.

Another point is that you should always use String.Compare to test two strings, since testing for equality of string objects will only check if the references are to the same block of memory.

Hi, so i am making a trivia game in c#. I have a sample question in an array, but i can't seem to get so that it will check if it is correct.
It keeps reading the text file and won't check if answer is correct.
Here is my code
 using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.IO;




namespace Trivia_Game
{
    class Program
    {
        private object questionArray;
        private object stringquestion;
        private object stringcorrectAnswer;
        private object question;
        private object userAnswer;
        private int credit;
        private static int score;
        private static object correctAnswer;
        private static string stringuserAnswer;
        private static bool user;
        private static int i;
        private static string dataFile;
        private static string[] shuffledLines;
        private static object file;
        private static string Key;
        private static object reader;
        private static object Reader;
        private static object streamReader;
        private static FileStream fileStream;
        private static object questionIndex;

        public static object QuestionArray { get; private set; }

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Enter your answer");


            string[] lines = File.ReadAllLines("questions.txt", Encoding.UTF8);

            string AnswerEntered;
            AnswerEntered = Console.ReadLine();

            foreach (string line in lines)
            {
                string[] questions = new string[1] { "What was the version number of ios that introduced voiceover?" };
                string[] CorrectAnswer = new string[1] { "A"};
                Console.WriteLine(line);
                Console.WriteLine("Enter an answer");

                AnswerEntered= Console.ReadLine();

                string[] IncorrectAnswer=new string [1] {"B"};

                if(AnswerEntered=="CorrectAnswer")

                {
                    Console.WriteLine("You are correct!");
                }

                Console.ReadLine();

            }
        }



    }

}
