fputc, putc
From cppreference.com
| Defined in header
<stdio.h>

||
| int fputc( int ch, FILE *stream );
|
||
| int putc( int ch, FILE *stream );
|
||
Writes a character ch to the given output stream stream. putc() may be implemented as a macro and evaluation stream more than once, so the corresponding argument should never be an expression with side effects.
Internally, the character is converted to unsigned char just before being written.

[edit] Parameters
| ch | - | character to be written |
[edit] Return value
On success, returns the written character.
On failure, returns EOF and sets the error indicator (see ferror()) on stream.
[edit] Example
putc with error checking
Run this code
#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main(void) { int ret_code = 0; for (char c = 'a'; (ret_code != EOF) && (c != 'z'); c++) ret_code = putc(c, stdout); /* Test whether EOF was reached. */ if (ret_code == EOF) if (ferror(stdout)) { perror("putc()"); fprintf(stderr,"putc() failed in file %s at line # %d\n", __FILE__,__LINE__-7); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } putc('\n', stdout); return EXIT_SUCCESS; }
Output:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxy
