This document discusses file management in C. It covers opening, reading, writing, and closing files. Some key points: - Files allow storing large amounts of data on disk for flexible retrieval. They are opened using fopen() which returns a file pointer. - Modes like "r", "w", and "a" specify whether the file can be read, written, or appended to. - Input/output functions like fprintf(), fscanf(), getc(), and putc() allow reading from and writing to files. - Proper closing of files with fclose() ensures all data is written and resources freed.
