Records are stored one after another in auxiliary storage, such as tape or disk, and there is an EOF (end-of-file) marker after the last record. The operating system has no information about the record …

The Boolean function EOF can be used to detect the end-of-file condition, while the procedures READ and WRITE can be used to transfer values from and to the file.

Discrete storage unit for data in the form of a stream of bytes. Every file is characterized with a starting of file (or beginning of file -BOF), sequence of bytes (actual data), and end of stream (or end of file …
