fwrite example)
FILE                *infile, *outfile;
int                 width = 800, height=600;
char                buf[32];


// Prepare data for buf[32]
//  ... Your code here


// Create a binary file.
outfile = fopen("mytest.dat", "wb");


fwrite(&width, 4, 1, outfile);
fwrite(&height, 4, 1, outfile);
fwrite(buf, 1, 32, outfile);
fclose(outfile);


// Read the binary file created above.
infile = fopen("mytest.dat", "rb");
fread(&width, 4, 1, infile);
fread(&height, 4, 1, infile);
fread(buf, 1, 32, infile);
fclose(infile);
