All good reading! Respect for forum users. I would like to open the file for reading and writing simultaneously, but catching errors.
Also, in addition, I would like to sample a sample, or a short hint, how to read binary file one byte at a time?
no matching function for call to 'std::basic_iostream<char>::basic_iostream(const char [9], std::_Ios_Openmode)'|Code:std::iostream lzw_file("test.lzw", std::ios::binary|std::ios::in|std::ios::out );
Okay, what don't you understand about that error message?
Did you try researching how to use the "iostream" class? If you would have you probably would have discovered that "iostream" is the name of a C++ standard header file not a C++ class.
Perhaps you should review your textbook on how to read and write to file streams, or perhaps study this link.

Cheeki breeki comrade! The class for reading/writing files is std::fstream, not std::iostream.Quote:
