Operations on Files
Operations on Files
There are basically four operations we can perform on files in C:
- Creating a File: We can create a file using C language, in any directory, without even leaving our compiler. We can select the name or type we want our file to have, along with its location.
- Opening a File: We can open an existing file and create a new file and open it using our program. We can perform different operations on a file after it has been opened.
- Closing a File: When we are done with the file, meaning that we have performed whatever we want to perform on our file, we can close the file using the close function.
- Read/Write to a File: After opening a file, we can access its contents and read, write, or update them.
