The API: int read4(char *buf)
reads 4 characters at a time from a file.
The return value is the actual number of characters read. For example, it returns 3 if there is only 3 characters left in the file.
By using the read4
API, implement the function int read(char *buf, int n)
that readsn characters from the file.
Note:
The read
function will only be called once for each test case.
int read(char* buf, int n) {
int len = 0;
while(n > 0) { // if no length left, ends.
int tmp = min(read4(buf), n);
n = n - tmp;
len = len + tmp;
buf += tmp; // buf need to be increased.
if(tmp < 4) break; // if tmp < 4, means ending.
}
return len;
}
