Read in a file and print to stdout

// I have a file with the following text:
/*
There lived a man named Jerry,
He was super duper merry.
He jumped and danced,
He banged on cans,
The happiest man named Jerry.
*/

    // Let's grab this file and print the entire
    // poem into the terminal

    // first let's take our file pointer and get
    // our file using fopen in one slick line
    // we have to be in read mode ("r")

    FILE * fp = fopen("poem.txt", "r");

    // we can pull in one character at a time using fgetc()
    // and we will know when to stop once feof() is true

    // each time fgetc() is called the index is automagically incremented
    // which is why it goes to the next character without us being involved
