char ch, file_name[25];
FILE *fp,*fn;
char name[20] = {"lastword"};
int i;
fp = fopen("f://words.txt", "a");
fprintf(fp, "%s\n", name);
fclose(fp);
fopen("f://words.txt", "r");
printf("the contents of words.txt file are :\n");
while ((ch = getc(fp)) != EOF) {
printf("%c", ch);
}
fclose(fp);
//searching a word in words.txt
fp=fopen("f://words.txt", "r");
fn=fopen("f://lastword.txt","w");
while ((fgets(file_name,25,fp)) != NULL) {
printf("%s\n",file_name);
