std::putchar - cppreference.com (original) (raw)

| | | | | ---------------------- | | | | int putchar( int ch ); | | |

Writes a character ch to stdout. Internally, the character is converted to unsigned char just before being written.

Equivalent to std::putc(ch, stdout).

[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 std::ferror()) on stdout.

[edit] Example

#include   int main() { for (char c = 'a'; c != 'z'; ++c) std::putchar(c);   // putchar return value is not equal to the argument int r = 0x1024; std::printf("\nr = 0x%x\n", r); r = std::putchar(r); std::printf("\nr = 0x%x\n", r); }

Possible output:

abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxy r = 0x1024 $ r = 0x24
