    Code:
    int main(void) {
        // Write inventory file
        FILE *f = fopen("inventory.dat", "w");
        if (f == NULL)
            return(EXIT_FAILURE);
        fprintf(f, "%s\n", "pro0duct name");
        fprintf(f, "%s\n", "cost");
        fprintf(f, "%s\n", "quantitity");
        if (fclose(f) == EOF)
            return(EXIT_FAILURE);    
        printf("Inventory file successfully written.\n");
        
        // Read inventory file
        char buf[1000];
        FILE *g = fopen("inventory.dat", "r");
        if (g == NULL)
            return(EXIT_FAILURE);
        printf("Reading inventory file:\n");
        while (fgets(buf, 1000, g) != NULL) {
            printf("%s", buf);
        }
        if (fclose(g) == EOF)
            exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
        printf("Inventory file successfully read.\n");
        return EXIT_SUCCESS;
    }

    No. That's not what we do. YOU need to start your program, THEN if you run into trouble with it, YOU need to post your code up, and describe what that trouble is, in detail. THEN we will help you get that worked out.

    We are not a short order coding service!
