I need help in creating a C function that will read a specific line from a text file in C based on the randomly generated number ranging from 1 to 50. The function would have the parameter of the text file and would return the string that the specific line of the text file contains. Note(the text file only contains characters , sentences and no numbers) Restrictions : Cant use break, exit(), break , continue,global variables. Only allowed to use stdio.h and string.h For instance if the random number is 4 then the function would return the 4th line of the particular text file.
