Copying file text/nuumbers/ect into a variable

[tizz]

I understand how to open files, and now I want to try and copy the contents of a text file to a character array. I have read about fgets() and fread() and fgetc(), but I am not sure how to use these to copy the contents of the file. Any help is appreciated.

char buff[BUFSIZ];
FILE *fp = fopen("file.txt","r");
while ( fgets( buff, sizeof buff, fp ) != NULL ) {
  // do something with every successive line in the file
  // until the end of the file is reached.
}
