Fread and fwrite Functions
1. Function Functions
Used to read and write a data block.
2. General call form
Fread (buffer, size, Count, FP );
Fwrite (buffer, size, Count, FP );
3. Description
(1) buffer: A pointer. For fread, It is the storage address for reading data. For fwrite, It is the address of the data to be output.
(2) size: the number of bytes to read and write;
(3) count: the number of data items of size bytes to be read and written;
(4) FP: file pointer.
Note: After completing the fwrite () operation, you must close the stream (fclose ());
2. After a read operation (fread () is completed, if the stream (fclose () is not closed, the pointer (File * FP) automatically moves the length of the previous read/write backward, if the stream is not closed and the next read operation is continued, the output is continued;
3 fprintf (): Input to the stream in the format. Its prototype is int fprintf (File * stream, const char * Format [, argument,...]); the method is the same as printf (), but it is not written to the console, but to the stream. Note that the returned value is the number of bytes written to the file for this operation. For example, int c = fprintf (FP, "% S % d % F", str1, str2, a, B); str1: 10 bytes; str2: 10 bytes;: 2 bytes; B: 8 bytes; C: 33, because a space is automatically added between different data during writing.
You must disable the file after it is used. Otherwise, the content cannot be correctly displayed. fwrite: Read the information of two students and store the information in the file using fwrite.
Fread: Use fread to read student information from the file.
