This document discusses file handling in C programming. It begins by introducing the concept of files and how they are used to store data on disk rather than temporarily in memory. It then covers key functions for working with files like fopen() to open a file, fclose() to close it, fprintf() and fscanf() to write and read data from files. The different modes for opening files are explained, including reading, writing, and appending. An example program is provided that demonstrates opening a file, writing data to it, rewinding to the start, reading the data back, and closing the file. Basic file handling is an important concept for persistent storage of data in programs.
