How to read plain text file in kotlin?

There may be various way to read plain text file in kotlin.

I want know what are the possible ways and how I can use them.

1. Using BufferedReader

    import java.io.File
    import java.io.BufferedReader

    fun main(args: Array<String>) {
        val bufferedReader: BufferedReader = File("example.txt").bufferedReader()    
        val inputString = bufferedReader.use { it.readText() }
        println(inputString)
    }

2. Using InputStream

Read By Line

    import java.io.File
    import java.io.InputStream

    fun main(args: Array<String>) {
        val inputStream: InputStream = File("example.txt").inputStream()
        val lineList = mutableListOf<String>()

        inputStream.bufferedReader().forEachLine { lineList.add(it) } 
        lineList.forEach{println(">  " + it)}
    }

Read All Lines

    import java.io.File
    import java.io.InputStream

    fun main(args: Array<String>) {
        val inputStream: InputStream = File("example.txt").inputStream()
        val inputString = inputStream.bufferedReader().use { it.readText() }
        println(inputString)
    }

3. Use File directly

    import java.io.File
    import java.io.BufferedReader

    fun main(args: Array<String>) {
        val lineList = mutableListOf<String>()

        File("example.txt").useLines { lines -> lines.forEach { lineList.add(it) }}
        lineList.forEach { println(">  " + it) }
    }
