<h3>PUTS(3)             Linux Programmer's Manual             PUTS(3)
</h3>

<h3>NAME
</h3>       fputc,  fputs,  putc, putchar, puts - output of characters
       and strings

<h3>SYNOPSIS
</h3>       #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;

       int fputc(int c, FILE *stream);
       int fputs(const char *s, FILE *stream);
       int putc(int c, FILE *stream);
       int putchar(int c);
       int puts(char *s);
       int ungetc(int c, FILE *stream);

<h3>DESCRIPTION
</h3>       fputc() writes the character c, cast to an unsigned  char,
       to stream.

       fputs()  writes the string s to stream, without its trail-
       ing '\0'.

       putc() is equivalent to fputc()  except  that  it  may  be
       implemented  as  a  macro which evaluates stream more than
       once.

       putchar(c); is equivalent to putc(c,stdout).

       puts() writes the string s and a trailing newline to  std-
       out.

       Calls  to  the  functions described here can be mixed with
       each other and with calls to other output  functions  from
       the stdio library for the same output stream.

<h3>RETURN VALUES
</h3>       fputc(), putc() and putchar() return the character written
       as an unsigned char cast to an int or EOF on error.

       puts() and fputs() return a non - negative number on  suc-
       cess, or EOF on error.


<h3>CONFORMS TO
</h3>       ANSI - C, POSIX.1

<h3>BUGS
</h3>       It  is not advisable to mix calls to output functions from
       the stdio library with low - level calls  to  write()  for
       the  file  descriptor  associated  with  the  same  output
       stream; the results will be undefined  and  very  probably
       not what you want.
