The document describes two C++ programs that demonstrate file handling operations. The first program creates a new text file, writes sample text to it, and then reads and displays the file contents. The second program appends additional text to the existing file. File handling in C++ allows programs to permanently store output in files and manipulate the file contents in various ways like writing, reading, and appending data. It provides an abstraction called streams to represent input/output devices.

LAB#12
FILING
1) (a) Write a C++ program to create a new text file and write some text into it and also open this
existing text file and display its contents on the console.
SOURCE CODE:
//WRITING IN FILE
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
fstream myFile;
myFile.open("oopbme.txt",ios::out);//creating file
if(!myFile){
cout<<"File doesnot exist";
}
else{
cout<<"File created successfully "<<endl;
}
myFile<<" Testing file :) "<<endl;
myFile<<"Hello !! here are some example text given "<<endl;
myFile<<"We are sitting in Biocomputing And Simulation
Lab"<<endl;
cout<<"Text written in the file successfully !! "<<endl;
myFile.close();
}
// READING A FILE
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
fstream myFile;
myFile.open("oopbme.txt",ios::in);//creating file
if(!myFile){
cout<<"File doesnot exist";
}
else{

}
string d;
while(getline(myFile, d)){
cout<<d<<endl;
}
myFile.close();
}

OUTPUT:
File created successfully
Text written in the file successfully !!

--------------------------------
Testing file :)
Hello !! here are some example text given
We are sitting in Biocomputing And Simulation Lab

--------------------------------
(2) Write a C++ program to append new data to an existing text file.
SOURCE CODE:

#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
fstream myFile;
myFile.open("oopbme.txt",ios::app);//creating file
if(!myFile){
cout<<"File doesnot exist";
}
else{
cout<<"File created successfully "<<endl;
}
myFile<<" Testing file :) "<<endl;
myFile<<"Hello !! here are some example text given "<<endl;
myFile<<"We are sitting in Biocomputing And Simulation
Lab"<<endl;
cout<<"Text written in the file Appended successfully !! "<<endl;

myFile.close();
}

OUTPUT:

File created successfully


Text written in the file Appended successfully !!

--------------------------------

CONCLUSION:
Data is permanently stored on a storage device using files. File handling offers a way to save
program output in a file and manipulate it in different ways. C++ file handling stores program output
and performs operations on it, permanently storing data on a storage device. An abstraction that
symbolizes a device used for input and output activities is called a stream. Binary files offer multiple
file openings in a program, require less memory for data storage, and can read or write structured
data like structures and class objects.
