Skip reading the first line

When reading a txt file, how to skip the first line?
Thanks.

Just ignore what you have read in first line:

fh = fopen("filename.txt", "r" );
if( fh )
{
    linecounter = 0;
  
    while( ! feof( fh ) )
    {
         line = fgets( fh );
         if( linecounter > 0 )
         {
           // process text when it is in second and subsequent lines
         }
         else
         {
           // this is entered for only very first line so by doing nothing you skip first line
         }
         
         linecounter++; // count lines
    }

   fclose( fh );
}
