Looking for a library function!!

[Hans]

Hi all,
Is anyone aware of any existing library functions that directly read
only a fixed number of bytes?? I dont wanna use scanf or put getchar()
in a loop.. any other suggestions???
Thanks in advance,
Hans.

I'm sure lots of people are aware of such functions. What you are
looking for is probably fread. As always, read your text book and check
the return value when using it.

fread().

Or use simply getc() or getchar() to read byte after byte.
