Pascal Program to Create and Save Records in a Textfile
program Create_Records;
Type
Gra = String [30];
File_Content = Record
Name : Gra;
Matric_No : Gra;
Dept : Gra;
Sex : Gra;
Date_Of_Birth : Gra;
(*enter as many data as you like and intialise either as string, integer or char*);
End;
Var
FileInfo : File_Content;
Newfile : text;
I : Integer;
Begin
Assign (newfile, 'Grace_Joseph.txt');
rewrite (Newfile);
for i := 1 to 5 do
begin
writeln ('Enter name:');
readln ( fileinfo.name);
writeln ('matric number');
readln (fileinfo.matric_No);
writeln ('department');
readln (fileinfo.dept);
writeln ('sex');
readln (fileinfo.sex);
writeln ('date of birth');
readln (fileinfo.date_of_birth);
(*follow the above procedure to write and read the data you initialised* )
writeln (newfile,' Name:', fileinfo.name)
writeln (newfile, 'matric number:', fileinfo.matric_no);
writeln (newfile,' Department: ', fileinfo.dept);
writeln (newfile,' Sex:', fileinfo.sex);
writeln (newfile,' Date Of Birth:', fileinfo.date_of_birth);
readln;
end;
close (newfile);
end.
In the program above, students records are saved in a textfile. You can rename the name of the textfile from Grace_Joseph.txt to yourDesired Name.txt. Goto the documents in your computer and search for the file using. the filename.txt.
The program creates a record for 5 students using the For Do loop.
