hi guys I am reading a file and printing it out but the printing or reading the file skips letters like goes to the first letter and skip the second and goes to the third and skip the fourth and so on any help


char ch;
FILE *fl;
do (ch = fgetc(fl)){

printf("the words ar %c ",ch);

while (fgetc(fl) != EOF)

Your code is incomplete, however I can see 2 errors in what you posted.

* ch should be type int, not char.

* You need an extra set of parentheses around your loop condition.

int ch;

while ((ch = fgetc(fl)) != EOF)
/* Do something with ch */;

there... this will work
//------------
char szfilename[255] = "myfile.txt";
char ch;
FILE *fl;

if (fl = fopen(szfilename,"r&quot) //"r" for read
{
printf("the words ar "
do
{
ch = fgetc(fl);
printf("%c",ch);

}while (ch != EOF);
}
//------------

ch is still the wrong type. If char is unsigned, ch will never equal EOF and the loop will continue forever. If char is signed and there are values larger than SCHAR_MAX that are returned by fgetc, the result overflows.

The test is also performed at the wrong time and the value of EOF gets printed to standard output.

hi,
as per my knowledge goes i m answering........

here in pgm, in do (c = ..) u hav used fgetc once which will get the character pointed by f1 & thats printed using printf.but again in while(fgetc ...) u r getting char but not printing it & when control goes back to do(..), its getting char again. so, char which was got in while(..) is missed out. so, i feel thats the reason u r skipping characters while printing....
try using a while loop instead of a do-while...

your calling fgetc twice in each iteration. one gets printed to stdout and the other goes to the bit bucket.

disregarding other errors you might change

while (fgetc(fl) != EOF)

to this

while (ch != EOF)

the other sugestions as above notwithstanding.

If you want to be careful not to offend anyone, you might try "Hey you all" or "Hey y'all".
