NAME
getc - get character from stream
LIBRARY
Standard C library
( libc,~ -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
int getc(FILE *stream);
DESCRIPTION
getc()
is equivalent to
fgetc(3),
except for the BUGS
(see below).
Use
fgetc(3)
instead.
STANDARDS
C23, POSIX.-2024.
HISTORY
POSIX.-2001, C89.
BUGS
Multiple evaluation
It may be implemented as a macro,
and it may evaluate
stream
more than once.
Name
The name is inconsistent.
It is often confused with
getchar(3),
as normally
<stdio.h>
functions without the "f" prefix in their name
are variants that use
stdin.
