System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file

I have a file Roman_Numbers.txt, and i put it next to my *.fsxfile in the folder of project. Then I tried to read this file using the following function in the fsx file:

    open System.IO
    let readNumbersFromFile(path:string)=
       let lines = File.ReadLines(path)
       let ListOfNumbers = List.ofSeq(lines);
       checkConvert  ListOfNumbers

    readNumbersFromFile(@"Roman_Numbers.txt")

But i face with this erorr:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\Users\Salman\AppData\Local\Temp\Roman_Numbers.txt'.
> File name: 'C:\Users\Salman\AppData\Local\Temp\Roman_Numbers.txt'

The question is: Why it should look for C:\Users\Salman\AppData\Local\Temp\Roman_Numbers.txt' this address, meanwhile my project is not here and more over i clearly mention Roman_Numbers.txt as a source of file?

How can i fix it?

Use SOURCE_DIRECTORY 

readNumbersFromFile( __SOURCE_DIRECTORY__ +  @"/Roman_Numbers.txt")

I guess you should copy the file into your package folder and specify the complete path into your code. Try that and see the result
