Need of File Handling:

The data that is generated by programs will be lost when the program is terminated. Hence for later use we need to store the information at some place and this place is FILE. 
File is a medium to store and later retrieve information.




File operations:
1.       Create
2.       Open
3.       Read
4.       Write
5.       Close
6.       Seek

Example: Reading the content of file  àabc.txt

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
FILE *fp;
char ch;
fp=fopen(“abc.txt”,”r”);
while(1)
{
                Ch=fgetc(fp);

                If(ch==EOF)
                {
                                break;
}
printf("%c",ch);
}
fclose(fp);
}
