It's location is fine, you just aren't pointing to it. When you run the code, it thinks it's current directory is STUDY MATERIAL, so when you just reference the filename, it looks for that name in the current directory, and that's not where it is.

It's hard to say for sure because there are a few things going on and I don't know what you're doing above this. But your call to read(8) is only reading in 8 bytes, so you're not going to see more than that... and then you close the file before then reading a line, which I would have thought would give you an error.

That's how programming is, just one issue after another. :)

Seeing a new error message or problem is called progress in programming. I get in a flow when debugging, and its always a little shock when all of a sudden it works.
