IPC144 Word Problem – Working with Files

Write a C program that when run will ask the user for a string pattern. The main program will prompt the user to enter a string pattern. The program will then read the data file called file.txt and will display the number of times that the pattern matches in the contents of file.txt .

You will be creating 2 functions:

int getContents(char pattern[]) - Will read the contents of the file file.txt line-by-line
and during each cycle will call the countMatch() function. The getContents() function will accumulate the number of matches from the countMatch() function and will then return the total number of pattern matches.

int countMatch(char contents[], char pattern[]) - Will count and return the number of
occurrences of the pattern in the line that is read from the file when this function is called from within the getContents() function.
