Section 15.2 Reading from a File
This program demonstrates how to open a file, read numbers from the file and then close the file.
How do we know how many numbers are stored in the file? In this particular example, we are told that there are 10 numbers stored in the file. Later, we will learn how to figure this information out on our own. Here is what the file looks like:
9 56 3 8 -11 0 -45 55 2 78
