#define DATA_SIZE 1000
int main()
{
/* Variable to store user content */
char data[DATA_SIZE];
/* File pointer to hold reference to our file */
FILE * fPtr;
/*
* Open file in w (write) mode.
* "data/file1.txt" is complete path to create file
*/
fPtr = fopen("data/file1.txt", "w");
/* fopen() return NULL if last operation was unsuccessful */
if(fPtr == NULL)
{
/* File not created hence exit */
printf("Unable to create file.\n");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
/* Input contents from user to store in file */
printf("Enter contents to store in file : \n");
fgets(data, DATA_SIZE, stdin);
/* Write data to file */
fputs(data, fPtr);
/* Close file to save file data */
fclose(fPtr);
/* Success message */
printf("File created and saved successfully. :) \n");
