Lab03-08. We can erase data elements from a random file because the connected stream in memory is in fact an array. We erase a data item by shifting the rest of the items one position toward the beginning of the stream. However, shifting creates a duplicate data item at the end. In an array, we reduce the size to avoid using that duplicate. In the case of a stream, we must change the last element to a dummy. We know that a file of characters can be accessed randomly because the size of a character is fixed. Assume that you have the following file of characters: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
