so the fstream is a fiel open header?

Yes. If you read the documentation link I gave you it will show you how to do it.

ok

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

int main () {
  ofstream myfile;
  myfile.open ("example.txt");
  myfile << "Writing this to a file.\n";
  myfile.close();
  return 0;
}

That's exactly right. However, I suggest between opening the file and writing to it, you use std::ofstream::fail() to check that the file has opened correctly.
