# read abstract method

Future<Uint8List> read(

1. int count

)

Reads up to `count` bytes from a file.

May return fewer than `count` bytes. This can happen, for example, when reading past the end of a file or when reading from a pipe that does not currently contain additional data.

An empty Uint8List will only be returned when reading past the end of the file or when `count` is `0`.

## Implementation

    Future<Uint8List> read(int count);
