Good documentation on the use of standard library function calls will provide 
the function prototype *and* indicate all header files you should include.  
That means that when you look up fopen(), fscanf(), fclose(), and fprintf(), 
you shall include each and every one of the headers they name.  In this case, I 
can think of only one header that will cover you for the use of these calls.
