Run this code
#include <cstdlib>
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    std::ifstream file("test.txt");
    if (!file) // operator! is used here
    {  
        std::cout << "File opening failed\n";
        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }
 
    // typical C++ I/O loop uses the return value of the I/O function
    // as the loop controlling condition, operator bool() is used here
    for (int n; file >> n;)
