how to use EOF to read a file in C++,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A check for EOF is often part of a conditional, such as during a loop.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure how to use it, in PASCAL we use while not eof do begin read(...); ...; end; is it the same in C++?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes while (char != EOF) { //stuff }

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C idiom: while ((c = getchar()) != EOF) { //stuff }

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks a lot!

In c++ it is just like fstream f(.....); if(f.eof()) in C++ eof() return a true value if file reading is over else it returns false
