Employee Record System - C Programmer

This C program allows users to manage employee records stored in a binary file. It presents a menu with options to add, view, modify, and delete records. Records are stored in a structure variable containing the employee's name, age, and salary. File pointers are used to open, read from, write to, and close the binary data file containing the employee records. Record operations like adding, editing, and deleting are done by reading from and writing to the file.
