ascot #1 / 5	read a file than produce 2 output files(HELP) read a file than produce 2 output files(HELP) I have to write a program that reads a file that contains names. The program must read all names until the end of file. Then it has to produce one file that puts all users names in upper case and a second file that puts all users names in lower case. Blank lines in the input file should not be written to the output file. need some help --

You open files with fopen, and will probably want to write the lines out with fputs. You can test for a line being blank with a small loop that looks through all the characters read in for the line, and using isspace on each to find whether there's at least one character that's not whitespace. If they're all whitespace, simply read in another line. I'm afraid I'm not going to tell you much more than that -- this sounds a bit too much like homework for me to be comfortable writing the code for you, even though it would have been easier (and shorter) than writing this post. --
