getc[edit | edit source]

Syntax
#include <cstdio>
int getc( FILE *stream );

The getc() function returns the next character from stream, or EOF if the end of file is reached. getc() is identical to fgetc(). For example:

int ch;
FILE *input = fopen( "stuff", "r" );             

ch = getc( input );
while( ch != EOF ) {
  printf( "%c", ch );
  ch = getc( input );
}
