Write a c/c program that executes the command "ls" with standard output redirected to a file "a. txt". the same program then asks the user to enter a search key (using cin), reads the a. txt file to find it and reports whether the search key was found among the list of files in the current directory or not. note that you must use an exec() function to run the "ls" command and before that, you must redirect stdout to the file a. txt. also, at the end, you must report the result in the stdout. you cannot use the "system()" function. make sure to test your program.

okay, so i know we just goofed around in that chat, but ive been like genuinly depressed, like medically depressed for almost 4 years now. i had my first panic attack when i was 8. i woke my mum up and told her i felt like i was in a dream. like i was a goldfish in a bowl, looking at all these things going on around me and feeling . tiny. wort hless. and i now am now 17 y/o. i still feel those emotions daily. life used to go by so quick.like every day i would wake up and just like want to go back to bed cause i always felt like i was in the wrong place. i guess looking back, i was in the wrong state of mind. i took a expensive like nice trip to whyoming with my grandfather and ha ted it. like idk why. i would have loved it now, but i found myself writing in a journal everyday because i would forget what happened the day before, couldnt remember what i ate for like the previous meal. just my memory left me for the week i was there. worst feeling ive ever experienced.
