 To write and read the contents in afile we must create an object of class ofstream & ifstream The open() function is used to open different files that uses the same stream object The close() function is used to close a file. It takes no parameters and returns no value The put() function is used for writing one character at a time in a file The get() function is used for reading one charater at a time from a file The write() function is member function of the ofstream class which writes text in a line until it encounters a new line character
