ArrayList duplicate a text file C# Exercise - C# Programming Course

// Importing necessary namespaces for file I/O and ArrayList
using System; // For basic functionalities like Console
using System.Collections; // For using the ArrayList class
using System.IO; // For file input and output

class Program

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        // File paths for input and output text files
        string inputFile = "input.txt";  // Path to the input file
        string outputFile = "output.txt"; // Path to the output file

        // Check if the input file exists before proceeding
        if (File.Exists(inputFile))
        {
            // Create an ArrayList to store the lines from the input file
            ArrayList lines = new ArrayList();

            lines.Reverse();
