c++ output file stream.

[natasie]

hey everyone,

i am trying to to program an mm1 queue and send the data to a file named happy.csv.

below is the simple program that i have used just for example


using namespace std;

int main () {

int item_no=1;
ofstream out("happy.txt");
if (!out){
cout<<"Cannot open file"<<endl;
return 1;
}
out<<"item: "<<item_no<<endl;
out.close();
return 0;
}

i do not know however how this works, is it not supposed to show on the file named happy.csv? each time i simulate it, theres really no output from it.
please anyone like to help my confused state of mind and clarify this up for me?

thanks
