In this tutorial, we explore how to read CSV files in C# using the IronXL library, a free tool for development. The process begins with installing IronXL via the package manager console. After installation, we integrate it into our project by adding the necessary namespace. We then demonstrate reading data from a CSV file using the workbook.loadCSV method, specifying the file path and name. By accessing the default worksheet, we can loop through the data cells, extracting values from a specified range (A1 to A10) and displaying them in the console.

Additionally, the tutorial covers performing aggregation functions on the data, such as calculating the sum and minimum values within the range. This is achieved using LINQ with decimal.Sum and decimal.Min functions, showcasing the flexibility and power of IronXL for data manipulation. The tutorial concludes with a successful demonstration of these operations, encouraging users to reach out to the support team for further assistance if needed.
