When you open a file in write mode, eg.
fp=fopen("filename.txt","w");
the content of the file is deleted.
We can read and write to files with the help of file commands in c programming.There are so many commands related to file for read,write,append,delete etc.

You insert data into a file by copying the file to a temporary file up to the point of insertion, then copying the data to be inserted, then copying the balance of the original file. After closing the temporary file you delete the original file and rename the temporary file back to the original file's name.
That depends on the type of file and what you mean by "empty". Generally, fopen() called on an existing file, with the "w" option instead of the "a" option will truncate the file to zero length. To delete a file completely is a different process. Function truncate is your friend.
To format a hard drive means to delete any information on the drive and to set up a file system so Windows 7 can read from it and write data to it.
To delete all the existing data in a file, simply open it in write mode. If you open the file in append mode, you need to overwrite the existing data to delete part or all of that data.

Because programming is the part of the business. It maintains the financial statement of the business, it helps to delete, edit, to create new file or to update data for the business.

Write your data to a data file.
In most data processing, when deleting a file, it is only the file name that is deleted. This then leaves the space previously occupied by the file to be re-used. This is an inherent property of a 'file allocation table'. Importantly, to actually remove the data, one must re-write new arbitrary data over the file space many times. Seven overwrites is usually adequate.
You go on the wii menu and select settings. then save data. then u delete it from there.
Open the file for reading and load the content into memory where it can freely edited. To prevent external changes to the file, keep the file open but lock it to prevent access. When the user saves the modified data, write that data to a temporary file then close it. Then close the original file, delete it and rename the temporary file with the original file name. For added safety during file edits, you should also maintain a recovery file that keeps track of all the changes. Once the temporary is renamed, you can delete the recovery file.
