#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 ); }
