  How To Write a Hello World Program In C++ Programming Language In this post we will look at how a C++ program works. We will try make the example as simple as possible for the beginners so they can easily understand the basics of C++. We will write a simple C++ hello world program in C++ programming language which is considered as the very first program in almost every programming language. A Brief Introduction to the C++ Programming Language C++ is an object oriented programming language and it is an extension to C programming language. C++ is a general purpose programming language and it is also a case-sensitive language. C++ is very powerful programming language it has features of both low level and high level programming languages, and that is why it is called mid level programming language. Hello World program in C++ programming language Above is an example of a simple Hello World program in C++ programming language. Now let us look at the code, and I will take you...

 What is File Handling in the C Programming Language


In programming languages, we sometimes encounter situations where we need to store data from a program. Sometimes, it is not enough to just create data during program execution and lose it as the program stops. So, in such situations, we need to store data at some permanent location so that we can access it later on and perform certain operations on it. These operations include creating a new file, opening a file, reading from a file, writing to a file, and deleting the file.

From here the concept of file handling comes into the picture. This file handling helps us to store the data permanently and then perform various operations on that stored data and use that data for other important purposes. So in simple words, a file is a location or container in computer storage devices for storing the data.





How to work with files in the C programming language

In C programming language we can perform different functions on a file. We can create files, open files, read files, and write data to the files using a pointer of type FILE. After creating a file pointer we can use the fopen() function in order to open the file and perform certain operations on the opened file. 


Different functions used for file handling

In file handling, there are various functions that we can use for various purposes. There are some common functions that we can use in file handling which include fopen(), fprintf(), fscanf(), and fclose(), etc.


Different Modes in File Handling

There are different modes that we can use in file handling and each of these modes performs various functions. These modes include w (write to a file), a (appends new data to a file), and r (reads data from a file).


Simple coding example for file handling 



Let us look at this above coding example in which we have implemented basic concepts of file handling in the main function first we created a file pointer like this FILE* FilePointer; after creating this file pointer then we used fopen() to simply create a file and also open it for writing in the file like this line FilePointer = fopen("Fahad.txt", "w"); in fopen() function. We give the file name "Fahad.txt" as the first argument and the mode "w" for writing text into this file. The "w" mode simply creates the text file and opens it for writing text in it.

After that, we check if FilePointer is not equal to null and if so, then print the message on the console screen that "File Created Successfully.". Then in the next line, we write the message "Say Hello To File Handling" using fprintf() function with the help of the file pointer. At last, we simply close the file using fclose() function and with the help of FilePointer.

Congratulations like always we have successfully implemented our first FileHandling Program.

How if else-if else ladder statement works in C program.

 How if else-if else ladder statement work in the C program. In C programming or any other programming language, there is a concept of control statements or conditional statements. In one of our previous blog posts, we shed some light on the if else statement in the C program. In this post, we will cover the if else-if else ladder statement, which is used when multiple conditions need to be addressed. No, we are going to look at the syntax of the if else-if else ladder statement. Syntax of if else-if else ladder statement if (condition)  { // code to be executed if the condition is true } else if ( condition ) { // code to be executed if the condition is true } else if ( condition )  { // code to be executed if the condition is true } else  { // code to be executed if none of the conditions is true } The if else-if else ladder statement is very similar to the if else statement. The main difference is the addition of an else-if part in it. In the above s...

How to add two numbers in C programming language

  How to add two numbers in the C programming language In this blog post, we will look at how we can use Visual Studio Community 2022 and write C language code to add two numbers. 1) Writing the program: This is a very basic and most important program for beginners. In this program, beginners deal with input and output functions like print() and scanf() for input and output. Let's dive into the coding part: 2) Explaining the coding part: At the start of the code, we can look at two lines starting with #define and #include. The first line is written so we can use print() and scanf() without any safety warning because printf_s() and scanf_s() are now preferred because they are safer to use. In the second line, we use stdio.h header file so that we can use input and output functions i.e., print() and scanf(). The int main() function is the entry point to your C program. It is a necessary function to run your C code. After that, we declared three variables num1, num2, and sum. We...
