10.5.2.37 FGet Intrinsic (function)

     FGet(C)

FGet: INTEGER(KIND=1) function.

C: CHARACTER; scalar; INTENT(OUT).

Intrinsic groups: badu77.

Description:

Reads a single character into C in stream mode from unit 5 (by-passing normal formatted input) using getc(3). Returns 0 on success, −1 on end-of-file, and the error code from ferror(3) otherwise.

Stream I/O should not be mixed with normal record-oriented (formatted or unformatted) I/O on the same unit; the results are unpredictable.
