Thread: Help with a program- I'm clueless

Hey guys, I really need help with this program I am to write out, I don't even know where to start I just can't get my head around files no matter how much I study it. My notes aren;t that great either. Apparently its pretty basic stuff but I'm literally clueless.

I was wondering if someone on here would be ever so kind and
help me out somewhat with this program I am to write. I will be
ever so grateful with any kind of help you may provide

Code:

Write a program that will give the user the following menu options;
Copy a file
Calculate average emplyee wage

Note: The program should be written using file & functions. Therefore if the
 user chooses option 1, a function called copyfile should be invoked. If the 
user chooses option 2, a function called averagewage should ne invoked. 
All the work involved in this program should be done in functions.

If the user chooses option 1, they should be prompted for the name of the 
file to copy from. The user should then be asked for the name of the file to
 copy to and when the operation is finished, a message should be displayed 
to the user.

If the user chooses option2, they should be asked for the name of
 thewage file that they wish to read from(assume the wage file containing an
 indefinite number of integer values,) The total of all wages in the file should be 
maintained and the average calculated.

If the user chooses an invalid menu option, an appropriate message should be displayed.
