Q:

Point out the error, if any, in the following program.

#include "stdio.h"

main()

{

      unsigned char;

       FILE *fp;

       fp = fopen ("trail", "r");

       while (( ch = getc (fp)) ! = EOF)

               printf ("%c", ch);

       fclose (fp);

}  

Answer

EOF has been defined as #define EOF -1 n the file "stdio.h" and an unsigned char ranges from 0 to 255 hence when EOF is read from the file it cannot be accommodated in ch. Solution is to declare ch as an int.
