Remarks

feof is a macro that tests the given stream for an end-of-file indicator. Once the indicator is set, read operations on the file return the indicator until rewind is called, or the file is closed.

The end-of-file indicator is reset with each input operation.

feof returns nonzero if an end-of-file indicator was detected on the last

Return value

input operation on the named stream, and 0 if end-of-file has not been reached.

Example

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
   FILE *stream;
   stream = fopen("DUMMY.FIL", "r");  /* open a file for reading */
   fgetc(stream);      /* read a character from the file */
   if (feof(stream))   /* check for EOF */
      printf("We have reached end-of-file\n");
fclose(stream) ;    /* close the file */
return 0;
