'records.txt'.

Now i want to store these ages and names in a structure 'records(r)' directly from the file. (Here i am not taking any input from the user)
as r.name & r.age.

Yes, start with the structure.

Here you wont get any help until you show some effort... Most of us here are students,and we too learn the same way...so stop chikening out and try!!! You will do it.

I find if somethings too complicated to do with little abstaction, make it more abstract. In C, that basicly means making more functions to do smaller tasks. I suprized myself what I can do with this technique. I reccomend making a function to seperate the words one by one, and make another function to put it into the struct. Good luck with your project:)
