Program Plan Intro

File:

When a data needs to be used for a program for its later use, the data can be stored in the form of file. The data present in the file can be used by the program whenever required.

Explanation of Solution

B)

Output file:

A file that is used to store the output is called as output file. When a program stores the output in a file, then it is called as output file. “ofstream” is a data type that represents output file stream used to create files and write information to files using output file stream object.

Example program:

//Include a header for input and output

#include <iostream>

//Include a for file operations

#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

// Driver method main()

int main () {

    // Create an object for ofstream

    ofstream outfile;

    // Open output file

    outfile...
