int puts(constchar* str); | ||
Writes every character from the null-terminated stringstr and one additional newline character'\n' to the output streamstdout, as if by repeatedly executingfputc.
The terminating null character fromstr is not written.

On success, returns a non-negative value.
On failure, returnsEOF and sets theerror indicator (seeferror()) onstream.
Theputs function appends the newline character to the output, whilefputs function does not.
Different implementations return different non-negative numbers: some return the last character written, some return the number of characters written (orINT_MAX if the string was longer than that), some simply return a non-negative constant.
A typical cause of failure forputs is running out of space on the file system, whenstdout is redirected to a file.
