One more way would be

Code:
int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
    FILE *fp;
    char word[100];
    int lp_cnt=0,w_cnt=0;
 
    if ( argc!=2 ) {
        printf("Usage Wrong\n");
        exit(1);
    }
 
    if ((fp=fopen(argv[1],"r")) == NULL) {
        printf("File opening error\n");
        exit(1);
    }
 
    while ( !feof(fp) ) {
fscanf(fp,"%s",word);
w_cnt++;
}
printf("word count is %d\n",w_cnt);
    return 0;
}
