Not necessarily by using cin and cout, but by using << and >> operators on other streams. These operators can be universally used on any stream (as far as I understand them). You can overload them for any sort of stream you want to use. In C, however, you have to know exactly how to perform such actions on files, so you will have to write your own version of printf() for any kind of file except for plain text files. So using << and >> can help to make your C++ code easier to survey, understand, and maintain. Regards, Nico
