Name
fseek function — Changes file position
Synopsis
int fseek(FILE* stream, long int offset, int origin)The fseek function seeks to
a different position in stream.
The origin must be one of
SEEK_CUR, SEEK_END, or SEEK_SET. The offset is relative to the current
position, end-of-file, or start-of-file, respectively. The
end-of-file flag is cleared, and any ungetc character is also cleared.
Use fsetpos instead of
fseek when using large files—that
is, for which a position does not necessarily fit into a long int.
The return value is 0 for
success or nonzero for an error.
