What command to move data on drive c so that all clusters of a file are in contiguous locations on the drive?

Defrag is the command to move all clusters of a file to contiguous locations. If you don't want to use the command line version, you could go to My Computer or Computer, right click on the drive you want to defragment, go to properties, and choose the option to defragment from there. Or you can go get something like Defragler or another 3rd party defragmentation program.

What is a contiguous file in a computer?

A contiguous file in a computer is one that is placed on a storage drive in such a way that it is in sequential portions of the drive. This is generally regarded as advantageous because it results in better performance by decreasing the amount of time it takes the computer to read the data (compared to when a single file is spread over a larger portion of the drive and not located in contiguous sectors). The performance gains experienced from contiguous files is the best reason to defragment a drive.
