from the top of my head you would need something like
CODE


#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

int main (int argc, char * const argv[]) {
    
    ofstream result_file ( "test.txt", ios::app );
    
    result_file << "Hello world! \n";
}

Another example:

CODE


#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

void main()
{

string strcap;

//sets a stream operator? as file and opens test.txt. you can now use the word file like cout
//to write to a text file.
ofstream file("test.txt")

//writes "im writing to a file" into test.txt.
file << "im writing to a file!";

//closes the file
file.close();

//sets a stream operator? as infile and opens read.txt. you can now use the word infile like
//cin to read information from the text file.
ifstream infile("read.txt");

//get's the first word of the file
infile >> strcap;

//closes the file after your done.
infile.close();
}
