In last hour's lesson you learned the basics of reading and writing disk data files. In this lesson you'll learn more about communication with disk data files. The main topics discussed in this hour are

    Random access to files
    Reading or writing binary data
    Redirecting the standard streams

In addition, the following C I/O functions are introduced in this lesson:

    The fseek(), ftell(), and rewind() functions
    The fscanf() and fprintf() functions
    The freopen() function




Summary

  •     The file position indicator can be reset by the fseek() function.
  •     The ftell() function can tell you the value of the current file position indicator.
  •     The rewind() function can set the file position indicator to the beginning of a file.
  •     After you specify the mode of the fopen() function for the binary file, you can use the fread() or fwrite() functions to perform I/O operations on binary data.
  •     Besides the fact that the fscanf() and fprintf() functions can do the same jobs as the scanf() and printf() functions, the fscanf() and fprintf() functions also allow the programmer to specify I/O streams.
  •     You can redirect the standard streams, such as stdin and stdout, to a disk file with the help of the freopen() function.

Using Nested Loops

Using Nested Loops

You can put a loop inside another one to make nested loops. The computer will run the inner loop first before it resumes the looping for the outer loop.

Listing 7.7 is an example of how nested loops work.

You may note that in the for and while statements, the expressions are set at the top of the loop. However, in this section, you're going to see another statement used for looping,
