Thread: Reading a written string from a file

Hi, Just wondering how to read a string I have written to this file, for verification that it was written to the file. If I do printf and read c string, it isn't verifying it was written to the file.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#define FILENAME "data.txt"

int main(void)
{
	char rating[20]="Good";

	FILE *data_1;

	data_1 = fopen("data","w");
	
	if(data_1==NULL)
	printf("error Opening file");
	
	else
	{
		fprintf(data_1,"%s", rating); /* writes the c string rating to file*/
	}
	/* don't know how to print what is in datafile to screen*/
	
	fclose(data_1);
	return 0;
	
}

Cheers
