20 <<putc>>---write a character (macro)
27 int putc(int <[ch]>, FILE *<[fp]>);
31 int putc(<[ch]>, <[fp]>)
36 <<putc>> is a macro, defined in <<stdio.h>>. <<putc>>
37 writes the argument <[ch]> to the file or stream identified by
38 <[fp]>, after converting it from an <<int>> to an <<unsigned char>>.
40 If the file was opened with append mode (or if the stream cannot
41 support positioning), then the new character goes at the end of the
42 file or stream. Otherwise, the new character is written at the
43 current value of the position indicator, and the position indicator
46 For a subroutine version of this macro, see <<fputc>>.
49 If successful, <<putc>> returns its argument <[ch]>. If an error
50 intervenes, the result is <<EOF>>. You can use `<<ferror(<[fp]>)>>' to
54 ANSI C requires <<putc>>; it suggests, but does not require, that
55 <<putc>> be implemented as a macro. The standard explicitly permits
56 macro implementations of <<putc>> to use the <[fp]> argument more than once;
57 therefore, in a portable program, you should not use an expression
58 with side effects as this argument.
60 Supporting OS subroutines required: <<close>>, <<fstat>>, <<isatty>>,
61 <<lseek>>, <<read>>, <<sbrk>>, <<write>>.
