;Task:
Create a file called   "output.txt",   and place in it the contents of the file   "input.txt",   ''via an intermediate variable''.
In other words, your program will demonstrate:
::#   how to read from a file into a variable
::#   how to write a variable's contents into a file
<br>
Oneliners that skip the intermediate variable are of secondary interest — operating systems have copy commands for that.
