File Input and Output in Integrative Programming

File Input and Output (I/O) enables programs to read and write data to files, facilitating data management beyond runtime. Arrays are utilized to temporarily store data during these operations, while both compiled and scripting languages support file I/O, with compiled languages offering speed and structure, and scripting languages providing ease and flexibility. This document outlines the basic concepts and examples of file I/O in programming.

File Input and Output in

Integrative Programming and


Technologies
Including Arrays, Compiled
Languages, and Scripting Languages
Introduction to File Input and
Output
• File Input and Output (I/O) is the process of
reading data from and writing data to files. It
allows programs to store, retrieve, and
manage data beyond the program’s runtime.
In Integrative Programming and Technologies,
it connects different programming concepts
and languages.
Basics of File Input and Output
• • File Input: Reading data from a file into a
program.
• • File Output: Writing data from a program to
a file.

• Example actions:
• • Reading a list of names from a text file.
• • Writing student grades or records to a file
for storage.
How Arrays Are Used in File Input
and Output
• Arrays are used to temporarily store multiple
pieces of data that are read from or written to
a file.

• Example scenario:
• 1. Read data from a file and store each line or
number in an array.
• 2. Process or modify the data stored in the
array.
• 3. Write the updated array back to a file.
Example Scenario (Java Concept)
• Imagine a Java program that stores student
grades:

• • The program reads all grades from


'grades.txt' into an array.
• • It calculates the average grade.
• • Then writes the results into 'output.txt'.

• Arrays make it easy to handle multiple grades


Compiled and Scripting Languages
in File I/O
• Both compiled and scripting languages can
perform file input and output:

• • Compiled Languages (e.g., Java, C++): Code


is converted to machine language before
execution. They are faster and good for large
applications.

• • Scripting Languages (e.g., Python, PHP):


Code runs line by line without compilation.
How They Relate to File Input and
Output
• • Compiled languages handle file I/O in
structured, high-performance programs (like
data management systems).
• • Scripting languages handle file I/O in smaller,
faster-to-develop scripts (like text file readers
or web apps).

• Both approaches read and write files, but


scripting is easier for quick tasks, while
compiled is better for large systems.
Summary
• • File Input and Output allows data to be
saved and retrieved.
• • Arrays help manage multiple data values
efficiently.
• • Compiled and scripting languages both
support file operations.
• • Compiled = faster, structured programs.
• • Scripting = easier, flexible, and runs line by
line.
