Another way to write to files?

[Wolfmagi]

#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    char recnam[50];
    char text[120];
    
    cout<< "Enter Recipe name \n";
    cin.getline(recnam, 50, '\n');
    ofstream reci( "recipe.txt" );
    reci<< recnam<< '\n \n';
    cin.getline(text, 120, '\n');
    reci<< text<< '\n';
    cin.getline(text, 120, '\n');
    reci<< text<< '\n';
    cin.getline(text, 120, '\n');
    reci<< text<< '\n';
    cin.getline(text, 120, '\n');
    reci<< text<< '\n';
    reci.close();
}

this little program above will write 4 lines of text to a file named "recipe.txt"
isn't there a better way to do this? (please say yes lol)
I'm using a "recipe" as an example, but I want to be able to write, basically.. a text editor lol...
I'm just starting so I grabbed bloodshed Dev-C++ IDE.
Anyway.. can anyone help me?

You could certainly use a loop.
