Correct Option: getchar()
Definition: The getchar()
function in C is used to read a single character from the standard input (typically the keyboard). It is a part of the standard input/output library and is defined in the stdio.h
header file. The getchar()
function reads the next available character from the input buffer and returns it as an integer. If there is an error or if the end-of-file (EOF) is reached, it returns EOF.
Syntax:
int getchar(void);
Example:
#include
int main() {
char c;
printf("Enter a character: ");
c = getchar();
printf("You entered: %c\n", c);
return 0;
}
In this example, the program prompts the user to enter a character. The getchar()
function reads the character, and it is then printed using printf()
.
