Basic File Operations

This C++ code document provides examples of basic file input/output operations including writing text to a file, writing multiple lines to a file, and reading from a file and outputting the lines. It uses ofstream and ifstream to open files for writing and reading, writes text to files using <<, reads line by line using getline, and checks if files open successfully with is_open().
