Cat

Instructions

Write a program that does the same thing as the system's cat command-line.

• You don't have to handle options.

• But if just call the program with out arguments it should take a input and print it back

• In the program folder create two files named quest8.txt and quest8T.txt.

• Copy to the quest8.txt file this :

  • "Programming is a skill best acquired by pratice and example rather than from books" by Alan Turing

• Copy to the quest8T.txt file this :

  • "Alan Mathison Turing was an English mathematician, computer scientist, logician, cryptanalyst. Turing was highly influential in the development of theoretical computer science, providing a formalisation of the concepts of algorithm and computation with the Turing machine, which can be considered a model of a general-purpose computer. Turing is widely considered to be the father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence."

• In case of error it should print the error.

Output:
