    www.google.com || man fseek
    Syntax:

    #include <stdio.h>
    int fseek( FILE *stream, long offset, int origin );



    Description:
    The function fseek() sets the file position data for the given stream. The origin value should have one of the following values (defined in stdio.h):



    Name Explanation

    SEEK_SET Seek from the start of the file

    SEEK_CUR Seek from the current location

    SEEK_END Seek from the end of the file



    fseek() returns zero upon success, non-zero on failure. You can use fseek() to move beyond a file, but not before the beginning. Using fseek() clears the EOF flag associated with that stream.

    Why don't you use the same resource which told you about the printf() arguments or strcat() arguments?

    Take a wild guess - what do you think it could possibly mean?
    - do my laundry
    - reboot my computer
    - search the web
    - compile and run the program.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
