[c] Difference between r+ and w+ in fopen()

w+

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
   FILE *fp;
   fp = fopen("test.txt", "w+");  //write and read mode
   fprintf(fp, "This is testing for fprintf...\n"); 

   rewind(fp); //rewind () function moves file pointer position to the beginning of the file.
   char ch;
   while((ch=getc(fp))!=EOF)
   putchar(ch);

   fclose(fp);
}  

output

This is testing for fprintf...

test.txt

This is testing for fprintf...

w and r to form w+

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
   FILE *fp;

   fp = fopen("test.txt", "w"); //only write mode
   fprintf(fp, "This is testing for fprintf...\n"); 
   fclose(fp);
   fp = fopen("test.txt", "r");
   char ch;
   while((ch=getc(fp))!=EOF)
   putchar(ch);
   fclose(fp);
}
