No, we are not going to provide you with the code.

It is obviously a class assignment which you must complete on your own.

Use a fixed length data record.

Use calculated offset positioning to jump to your wanted record.
file.seek();

Simple.

You could also check out 'File.find()' to find specific strings within a file. e.g. "1," "2," "40," (You'll probably find it in the "Stream" reference.)
I'm sure you can work things out from these answers, without us writing the code for you. :slight_smile:
