  2. End-of-file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-of-file

    In the C standard library, the character-reading functions such as getchar return a value equal to the symbolic value (macro) EOF to indicate that an end-of-file condition has occurred. The actual value of EOF is implementation-dependent and must be negative (it is commonly −1, such as in glibc [ 2 ] ).

  3. C file input/output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_file_input/output

    The C programming language provides many standard library functions for file input and output.These functions make up the bulk of the C standard library header <stdio.h>. [1] The functionality descends from a "portable I/O package" written by Mike Lesk at Bell Labs in the early 1970s, [2] and officially became part of the Unix operating system in Version 7.

  4. C Sharp syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_Sharp_syntax

    This is a feature of C# 9.0. Similar to in scripting languages, top-level statements removes the ceremony of having to declare the Program class with a Main method. Instead, statements can be written directly in one specific file, and that file will be the entry point of the program. Code in other files will still have to be defined in classes.

  5. Assignment (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assignment_(computer_science)

    In a statement such as while ((ch = getchar ())!= EOF) {…}, the return value of a function is used to control a loop while assigning that same value to a variable. In other programming languages, Scheme for example, the return value of an assignment is undefined and such idioms are invalid.

  6. read (system call) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Read_(system_call)

    The file is identified by a file descriptor that is normally obtained from a previous call to open. This system call reads in data in bytes, the number of which is specified by the caller, from the file and stores then into a buffer supplied by the calling process. The read system call takes three arguments: The file descriptor of the file.

  7. C date and time functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_date_and_time_functions

    The C date and time functions are a group of functions in the standard library of the C programming language implementing date and time manipulation operations. [1] They provide support for time acquisition, conversion between date formats, and formatted output to strings.

  8. Pure function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pure_function

    I/O is inherently impure: input operations undermine referential transparency, and output operations create side effects.Nevertheless, there is a sense in which a function can perform input or output and still be pure, if the sequence of operations on the relevant I/O devices is modeled explicitly as both an argument and a result, and I/O operations are taken to fail when the input sequence ...

  9. End-of-Transmission character - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-of-transmission_character

    In contrast, the Control-D causes the Unix terminal driver to signal the EOF condition, which is not a character, while the byte has no special meaning if actually read or written from a file or terminal. In Unix, the end-of-file character (by default EOT) causes the terminal driver to make available all characters in its input buffer ...
