  2. C file input/output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_file_input/output

    The C programming language provides many standard library functions for file input and output.These functions make up the bulk of the C standard library header <stdio.h>. [1] The functionality descends from a "portable I/O package" written by Mike Lesk at Bell Labs in the early 1970s, [2] and officially became part of the Unix operating system in Version 7.

  3. write (system call) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Write_(system_call)

    The data to be written, for instance a piece of text, is defined by a pointer and a size, given in number of bytes. write thus takes three arguments: The file code (file descriptor or fd). The pointer to a buffer where the data is stored (buf). The number of bytes to write from the buffer (nbytes).

  4. Zero-byte file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-byte_file

    Zero-byte files may arise in cases where a program creates a file but aborts or is interrupted prematurely while writing to it. Because writes are cached in memory and only flushed to disk at a later time ( page cache ), a program that does not flush its writes to disk or terminate normally may result in a zero-byte file.

  5. C data types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_data_types

    The C language specification includes the typedef s size_t and ptrdiff_t to represent memory-related quantities. Their size is defined according to the target processor's arithmetic capabilities, not the memory capabilities, such as available address space. Both of these types are defined in the <stddef.h> header (cstddef in C++).

  7. C (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_(programming_language)

    C source files contain declarations and function definitions. Function definitions, in turn, contain declarations and statements. Declarations either define new types using keywords such as struct, union, and enum, or assign types to and perhaps reserve storage for new variables, usually by writing the type followed by the variable name.

  8. Standard streams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_streams

    Unix eliminated this complexity with the concept of a data stream: an ordered sequence of data bytes which can be read until the end of file. A program may also write bytes as desired and need not, and cannot easily declare their count or grouping.

  9. dd (Unix) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_(Unix)

    dd is a command-line utility for Unix, Plan 9, Inferno, and Unix-like operating systems and beyond, the primary purpose of which is to convert and copy files. [1] On Unix, device drivers for hardware (such as hard disk drives) and special device files (such as /dev/zero and /dev/random) appear in the file system just like normal files; dd can also read and/or write from/to these files ...
