Byte-Oriented File input and output

Byte-Oriented: Write to a file
using System;
using System.IO;

} catch(IOException exc) {

return;
}
// Write the alphabet to the file.
try {
for(char c = "A"; c <= "Z"; c++)
fout.WriteByte((byte) c);
} catch(IOException exc) {
Console.WriteLine(exc.Message + "File Error");
}
fout.Close();
