class in java.
 Syntax:-
File fp=new File(“file1.txt”);
• Here fp is a object to File class and “file1.txt” is a name of
the file to be created.
 2nd Step:-
fp.createNewFile();
• In Java the first step only intitalize the creation of the file.
• For actual creation we need to call the method
“createNewFile()” of File class.
