Formatting an output file

[jddaugherty]

I wrote some functions that will output the x and y intercepts of a circle. Now I need to send the output to a text file and I also need to add some text to the output file. Thanks in advance for your help.

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
  int x, y;
  // ... your code that finds the intercepts here
  FILE* file = fopen("filename.txt", "wb"); // open a file for writing
  char output[255]; // a buffer to hold the output text
  sprintf(output, "X intercept: %d\nY Intercept: %d", x, y); // fill the buffer with some information
  fputs(output, file); // write that buffer into the file
  fclose(file); // close the file handle
  return 0;
}

#include <fstream>

int main()
{
    double x;
    double y;

    // calculate values for x and y here

    std::ofstream ofs("filename.txt");
    
    ofs << "x = " << x << std::endl;
    ofs << "y = " << y << std::endl;
}
