fgetc() and getc()

int fgetc(FILE *stream);

Description

Gets character from stream.
fgetc returns the next character on the named input stream.

Return Value

On success fgetc returns the character read after converting it to an int without sign extension. On end-of-file or error it returns EOF.
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
int getc(FILE *stream);

Description

Gets character from stream.
getc returns the next character on the given input stream and increments the stream's file pointer to point to the next character.

Note: For Win32s or Win32 GUI applications, stdin must be redirected.

Return Value

On success, getc returns the character read, after converting it to an int without sign extension.
On end-of-file or error, it returns EOF.
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, why have both?

Found this:

The getc() function is equivalent to fgetc(), except that if it is implemented as a macro it may evaluate stream more than once, so the argument should never be an expression with side effects.

So fgetc(*fp++) is not the same as: getc(*fp++)

It still doesn't answer your question...
