Syntax:

    #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 );
     }
