why will this write the text to a file:
and this do absolutely nothingCode:ofstream fout("info.txt"); char ch; char word[BUFSIZ]; int i = 0; while (1) { ch = getch(); word[i++] = ch; fout << word; } fout.close();
Code:ofstream fout("info.txt"); char ch; while (1) { ch = getch(); fout << ch; } fout.close();
Keyboard Not Found! Press any key to continue. . .
Good news! Neither work for me.
>> fout << word;
word is interpreted as a c-string, and must be null-terminated.
>> while (1)
Don't expect the file to have anything in it since fout.close() is never reached.
>> getch();
Mix'n C and C++ I/O.

I wouldn't say it "worked". You're just observing the results of running code with undefined behavior.
