Understand how to manipulate files by using system calls of open(), stat(), lseek(), write(), and create().

Instruction:

Write a C program (partcopy) that allows a user to extract some part of an existing file (fileSource) and copy it to a new file fileTarget. The user can specify the number of bytes (num1) from the beginning of filesource, how many bytes (num2) that will be extracted from it, and the new fileTarget name.

>partcopy num1 num2 filesource fileTarget

For instance, if the executable name is partcopy, extract 500 bytes from data.dat starting from the beginning of the file:

>partcopy 0 500 data.dat target.dat

For instance, if the executable name is partcopy, extract 300 bytes from data.dat starting at 50 bytes from the beginning of the file to target.dat:

>partcopy 50 300 data.dat target.dat

Note:

You need to use command line argument to acquire the num1, num2, and filetarget name. ( 5pts)

You need to use open() system call to open an existing file. Print out the error message if the filesource does not exist byusing perror() function. (5 pts)

You need to check if the size of filesource againt the sizes of num1 and num2. Print out the warning message if the file size is smaller than num1+ num2. In this case, your program will just copy the content up to the end of the source file. This is the situation that the file size is too small to copy the requested size of the content. (10 pts)

Once the filesource is open, use lseek() system call to move the file pointer to the proper location for starting reading: num1 from the beginning of the filesource file. ( 20 pts)

Create a new file fileTarget and use read() and write() system call to copy the content from filesource to fileTarget for num2 bytes.Close files when extraction process is complete. 20 pts)
