Print contents of a file in C

Here is an example to print contents of a file in C language,

Let’s say we have “new.txt” file with the following content.

0,hell!o
1,hello!
2,gfdtrhtrhrt
3,demo

Now, let us see the example.

Example

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main() {
   FILE *f;
   char s;
   clrscr();
   f=fopen("new.txt","r");
   while((s=fgetc(f))!=EOF) {
      printf("%c",s);
   }
   fclose(f);
   getch();
}

Output

0,hell!o
1,hello!
2,gfdtrhtrhrt
3,demo

In the above program, we have a text file “new.txt”. A file pointer is used to open and read the file. It is displaying the content of file.

FILE *f;
char s;
clrscr();
f=fopen("new.txt","r");
while((s=fgetc(f))!=EOF) {
   printf("%c",s);
}
