Reads the next character from a specified file, and converts it
    to a wide-character code.

    Format

      #include  <wchar.h>

      wint_t getwc  (FILE *file_ptr);

1  –  Argument

 file_ptr

    A pointer to the file to be accessed.

2  –  Description

    Since getwc is implemented as a macro, a file pointer argument
    with side effects (for example getwc (*f++)) might be evaluated
    incorrectly. In such a case, use the fgetwc function instead. See
    the fgetwc function.

3  –  Return Values

    n                  The returned character.
    WEOF               Indicates the end-of-file or an error. If an
                       error occurs, the function sets errno. For a
                       list of the values set by this function, see
                       fgetwc.
