Elaborate the function or the expected output of the code so that we may point you in the right direction...

file1 and file2 are objects refrencing the resource "music.mp3" and "copied_file.mp3" respectively. An Inputstream is used to read the input file (music.mp3) and an Outputstream is used to write to the output file (copied_file.mp3). A while loop is used to read the bits of inputfile through inputstream and copy it to the outfile through outputstream until the size of output file is smaller than the input file and break out of the loop when both file have same size. This code is nothing but bit by bit copying of one file to another.

So here is a stackoverflow discussion on something similar.. I think this shall help..
