Header

char* gets( char* str );

Parameter

• char* str
  character string to be written

Return

• char*
stron success, NULLon failure.
  
  If the failure has been caused by end of file condition, additionally sets the eofindicator (see std::feof) on stdin.
  If the failure has been caused by some other error, sets the error indicator (see std::ferror) on stdin.

Appendix

mode

File access mode string	Meaning	Explanation	Action if file already exists	Action if file does not exist
"r"	read	Open a file for reading	read from start	failure to open
"w"	write	Create a file for writing	destroy contents	create new
"a"	append	Append to a file	write to end	create new
"r+"	read extended	Open a file for read/write	read from start	error
"w+"	write extended	Create a file for read/write	destroy contents	create new
"a+"	append extended	Open a file for read/write	write to end	create new
File access mode flag "b" can optionally be specified to open a file in binary mode. This flag has no effect on POSIX systems, but on Windows, for example, it disables special handling of '\n' and '\x1A'. On the append file access modes, data is written to the end of the file regardless of the current position of the file position indicator.
File access mode flag "x" can optionally be appended to "w" or "w+" specifiers. This flag forces the function to fail if the file exists, instead of overwriting it. (C++17)
The behavior is undefined if the mode is not one of the strings listed above. Some implementations define additional supported modes (e.g. Windows).

std::fscanf

Conversion specifier	Explanation	Argument type
length modifier		hh (C++11)	h	(none)	l	ll (C++11)	j (C++11)	z (C++11)	t (C++11)	L
%	matches literal %	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A
c	matches a character or a sequence of characters If a width specifier is used, matches exactly width characters (the argument must be a pointer to an array with sufficient room). Unlike %s and %[, does not append the null character to the array.	N/A	N/A	char*	wchar_t*	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A
s	matches a sequence of non-whitespace characters (a string) If width specifier is used, matches up to width or until the first whitespace character, whichever appears first. Always stores a null character in addition to the characters matched (so the argument array must have room for at least width+1 characters)
[set]	matches a non-empty sequence of character from set of characters. If the first character of the set is ^, then all characters not in the set are matched. If the set begins with ] or ^] then the ] character is also included into the set. It is implementation-defined whether the character - in the non-initial position in the scanset may be indicating a range, as in [0-9]. If width specifier is used, matches only up to width. Always stores a null character in addition to the characters matched (so the argument array must have room for at least width+1 characters)
d	matches a decimal integer. The format of the number is the same as expected by strtol() with the value 10 for the base argument	signed char* or unsigned char*	signed short* or unsigned short*	signed int* or unsigned int*	signed long* or unsigned long*	signed long long* or unsigned long long*	intmax_t* or uintmax_t*	size_t*	ptrdiff_t*	N/A
i	matches an integer. The format of the number is the same as expected by strtol() with the value ​0​ for the base argument (base is determined by the first characters parsed)
u	matches an unsigned decimal integer. The format of the number is the same as expected by strtoul() with the value 10 for the base argument.
o	matches an unsigned octal integer. The format of the number is the same as expected by strtoul() with the value 8 for the base argument
x, X	matches an unsigned hexadecimal integer. The format of the number is the same as expected by strtoul() with the value 16 for the base argument
n	returns the number of characters read so far. No input is consumed. Does not increment the assignment count. If the specifier has assignment-suppressing operator defined, the behavior is undefined
a, A(C++11) e, E f, F g, G	matches a floating-point number. The format of the number is the same as expected by strtof()	N/A	N/A	float*	double*	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	long double*
p	matches implementation defined character sequence defining a pointer. printf family of functions should produce the same sequence using %p format specifier	N/A	N/A	void**	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A

std::fprintf

pointer to a null-terminated multibyte string specifying how to interpret the data. The format string consists of ordinary multibyte characters (except %), which are copied unchanged into the output stream, and conversion specifications. Each conversion specification has the following format: introductory % character (optional) one or more flags that modify the behavior of the conversion: -: the result of the conversion is left-justified within the field (by default it is right-justified) +: the sign of signed conversions is always prepended to the result of the conversion (by default the result is preceded by minus only when it is negative) space: if the result of a signed conversion does not start with a sign character, or is empty, space is prepended to the result. It is ignored if + flag is present. # : alternative form of the conversion is performed. See the table below for exact effects otherwise the behavior is undefined. 0 : for integer and floating point number conversions, leading zeros are used to pad the field instead of space characters. For integer numbers it is ignored if the precision is explicitly specified. For other conversions using this flag results in undefined behavior. It is ignored if - flag is present. (optional) integer value or * that specifies minimum field width. The result is padded with space characters (by default), if required, on the left when right-justified, or on the right if left-justified. In the case when * is used, the width is specified by an additional argument of type int. If the value of the argument is negative, it results with the - flag specified and positive field width. (Note: This is the minimum width: The value is never truncated.) (optional) . followed by integer number or *, or neither that specifies precision of the conversion. In the case when * is used, the precision is specified by an additional argument of type int. If the value of this argument is negative, it is ignored. If neither a number nor * is used, the precision is taken as zero. See the table below for exact effects of precision. (optional) length modifier that specifies the size of the argument conversion format specifier The following format specifiers are available: Conversion specifier Explanation Argument type length modifier hh (C++11) h (none) l ll (C++11) j (C++11) z (C++11) t (C++11) L % writes literal %. The full conversion specification must be %%. N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A c writes a single character. The argument is first converted to unsigned char. If the l modifier is used, the argument is first converted to a character string as if by %ls with a wchar_t[2] argument. N/A N/A int wint_t N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A s writes a character string The argument must be a pointer to the initial element of an array of characters. Precision specifies the maximum number of bytes to be written. If Precision is not specified, writes every byte up to and not including the first null terminator. If the l specifier is used, the argument must be a pointer to the initial element of an array of wchar_t, which is converted to char array as if by a call to wcrtomb with zero-initialized conversion state. N/A N/A char* wchar_t* N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A d i converts a signed integer into decimal representation [-]dddd. Precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear. The default precision is 1. If both the converted value and the precision are ​0​ the conversion results in no characters. signed char short int long long long intmax_t signed size_t ptrdiff_t N/A o converts a unsigned integer into octal representation oooo. Precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear. The default precision is 1. If both the converted value and the precision are ​0​ the conversion results in no characters. In the alternative implementation precision is increased if necessary, to write one leading zero. In that case if both the converted value and the precision are ​0​, single ​0​ is written. unsigned char unsigned short unsigned int unsigned long unsigned long long uintmax_t size_t unsigned version of ptrdiff_t N/A x X converts an unsigned integer into hexadecimal representation hhhh. For the x conversion letters abcdef are used. For the X conversion letters ABCDEF are used. Precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear. The default precision is 1. If both the converted value and the precision are ​0​ the conversion results in no characters. In the alternative implementation 0x or 0X is prefixed to results if the converted value is nonzero. N/A u converts an unsigned integer into decimal representation dddd. Precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear. The default precision is 1. If both the converted value and the precision are ​0​ the conversion results in no characters. N/A f F converts floating-point number to the decimal notation in the style [-]ddd.ddd. Precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear after the decimal point character. The default precision is 6. In the alternative implementation decimal point character is written even if no digits follow it. For infinity and not-a-number conversion style see notes. N/A N/A double double (C++11) N/A N/A N/A N/A long double e E converts floating-point number to the decimal exponent notation. For the e conversion style [-]d.ddde±dd is used. For the E conversion style [-]d.dddE±dd is used. The exponent contains at least two digits, more digits are used only if necessary. If the value is ​0​, the exponent is also ​0​. Precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear after the decimal point character. The default precision is 6. In the alternative implementation decimal point character is written even if no digits follow it. For infinity and not-a-number conversion style see notes. N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A a A (C++11) converts floating-point number to the hexadecimal exponent notation. For the a conversion style [-]0xh.hhhp±d is used. For the A conversion style [-]0Xh.hhhP±d is used. The first hexadecimal digit is not 0 if the argument is a normalized floating point value. If the value is ​0​, the exponent is also ​0​. Precision specifies the minimum number of digits to appear after the decimal point character. The default precision is sufficient for exact representation of the value. In the alternative implementation decimal point character is written even if no digits follow it. For infinity and not-a-number conversion style see notes. N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A g G converts floating-point number to decimal or decimal exponent notation depending on the value and the precision. For the g conversion style conversion with style e or f will be performed. For the G conversion style conversion with style E or F will be performed. Let P equal the precision if nonzero, 6 if the precision is not specified, or 1 if the precision is ​0​. Then, if a conversion with style E would have an exponent of X: if P > X ≥ −4, the conversion is with style f or F and precision P − 1 − X. otherwise, the conversion is with style e or E and precision P − 1. Unless alternative representation is requested the trailing zeros are removed, also the decimal point character is removed if no fractional part is left. For infinity and not-a-number conversion style see notes. N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A n returns the number of characters written so far by this call to the function. The result is written to the value pointed to by the argument. The specification may not contain any flag, field width, or precision. signed char* short* int* long* long long* intmax_t* signed size_t* ptrdiff_t* N/A p writes an implementation defined character sequence defining a pointer. N/A N/A void* N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A The floating point conversion functions convert infinity to inf or infinity. Which one is used is implementation defined. Not-a-number is converted to nan or nan(char_sequence). Which one is used is implementation defined. The conversions F, E, G, A output INF, INFINITY, NAN instead. Even though %c expects int argument, it is safe to pass a char because of the integer promotion that takes place when a variadic function is called. The correct conversion specifications for the fixed-width character types (int8_t, etc) are defined in the header <cinttypes> (although PRIdMAX, PRIuMAX, etc is synonymous with %jd, %ju, etc). The memory-writing conversion specifier %n is a common target of security exploits where format strings depend on user input and is not supported by the bounds-checked printf_s family of functions. There is a sequence point after the action of each conversion specifier; this permits storing multiple %n results in the same variable or, as an edge case, printing a string modified by an earlier %n within the same call. If a conversion specification is invalid, the behavior is undefined.
