fputc() and fgetc() file handling functions

Writing File or fputc() function

The fputc() function is used to write a single character into file. It outputs a character to a stream.
putc() function is C library function, and it's used to write a character to the file.
This function is used for writing a single character in a stream along with that it moves forward the indicator's position.

Syntax: fputc(int c, FILE *stream)

Example:-

Reading File : fgetc() function

The fgetc() function returns a single character from the file. It gets a character from the stream. It returns EOF at the end of file.
getc() function is C library function, and it's used to read a character from a file that has been opened in read mode by fopen() function.
* getc() function returns next requested object from the stream on success.
* Character values are returned as an unsigned char cast to an int or EOF on end of file or error.
* The function feof() and ferror() to distinguish between end-of-file and error must be used.

Syntax: fgetc(FILE *stream)

Type casting

type casting or type conversion allows us to convert one data types into another.for type casting cast operator is required. Syntax:-- (type)expression or value; Example: int f =9/4; //without type casting o/p=2 float f=(float)9/4; //with type casting o/p=2.3 Type conversion are of two types: 1)Implicit Type Conversion:- it is also known as automatic type conversion.When the type conversion is performed automatically by the compiler,such type of conversion is known as implicit type conversion. 2)Explicit Type Conversion:- the type conversion performed by the programmer is known as explicit type conversion.which is done by cast operator as above mentioned.

CALL BY VALUE AND REFERENCE--

A function can be called by two types 1) Call By Value:- when an original value is not modified , is known as call by value. In call by value the actual parameter(the parameter passed to function) is copied into the formal parameter(parameter receive by function). in this the value of each variable in calling function is copied into the corresponding dummy variable of the called function. the changes made to the dummy variable have no effect on the actual variable. Example:- 2)Call By Reference:- when an original value is modified, is known as call by reference.in this a reference is used , denoted by &(symbol). we can use either pointer or reference for call by reference in this the address of the variable is passed into the function called by actual parameter. in this the memory allocation is same for both actual and formal arguments. Example:-

UNION

Definition:- Union is similar to structure, except it allows you to define the variable that share storage spaces.Defining a means creating a new data types. How use union:- when we create a structure by using struct keyword, now making a union we just replace the keyword struct with the keyword union , other syntax will be same. Difference between Structure and Union:- the only difference between them is in memory. NOTE:- union is used for low level programming but structure mostly used for high level programming. Program to access union:- """SHARE IT WITH YOUR FRIENDS IF HE DID NOT KNOW""""
