I can only give you a vague answer because of your vague question
addContact: Information can only be added to the end of the file. How to do that depends on how the file is opened. See the open flags here.. My suggestion is to use the "a" flag so that the os will write all data to the end of the time.
deleteContact: There are several ways to handle this
1) Completly rewrite the entire file, leaving out the information to be deleted.
2) Write a special character to the beginning of a record that acts as a delete flag for the rest of your program. Other parts of the program that reads the file should just ignore records that have the delete indicator (flag) set. This is one method that is used when dealing with large files.
