Explain how to read and write a file using JavaScript?

const fs = require('fs')

fs.writeFile('index.js', 'Content of the file goes here', (error) => {
    if(error) {
        console.log(error)
    }
    console.log('file created!')
})

fs.readFile('input.js', (err, data) => {
    if(err) {
        console.log(err)
    }
    console.log(`The data in the file is: ${data.toString()}`)
})

1. First we require fs module (Node File System module) which reads and writes in a file.
2. The function writeFile() is used to create a file. This function accepts 2 arguments and a function. The first one takes the name of the file, the second argument takes the data of the file, and lastly, the function takes the error (if any).
3. The function readFile() is used to read a file. This function accepts the name of the file to be searched and then there is a function with two arguments. First for the error, and second for the data inside the file.
