couple of recommended books where you can go for further information (including classic book on C written by Kernighan and Ritchie and referred to here as K&R). The man pages are also a great source of information. Comments print to stderr python The only valid way to specify a comment in C is like so: /* this is a comment */ /* This is a multiline comment */ You cannot nest comments. /* This is /*nested */ comment. And is illegal. */ I/O C doesn't have stream operators. Instead you'll want to use the functions provided in the stdio library. In particular: printf, fprintf, fgets, fputs. Output: printf, fprintf, fputs The most common output function in C is print to stderr perl printf() which prints characters to the screen (or wherever standard out is directed to go). Here's a quick hello world program that illustrates its use: #include

[closed] up vote -3 down vote favorite In C, Printing to stdout is easy, with printf from stdio.h. However, how can print to stderr? We can use fprintf to achieve it apparently, but its syntax seems strange. Maybe we can use printf to print to stderr? c printf stderr share|improve this question edited Aug 17 at 18:01 asked Aug 17 at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39002052/how-i-can-print-to-stderr-in-c 16:40 wad 424 closed as off-topic by KevinDTimm, Paul R, Olaf, qrdl, Ashish Ahuja ツ Aug 20 at 5:25 This question appears to be off-topic.

It's print where, how and what. –Eugene Sh. Aug 17 at 16:42 4 I am focusing on it. The only problem which is arising from the question, that you find the solution "strange". Otherwise there is no question. Use fprintf. –Eugene Sh. Aug 17 at 16:46 @Eugene. I agree with you. I thought it was strange as I did not realize stderr is a FILE :) –

Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up Error checking fprintf when print to printing to stderr up vote 8 down vote favorite 3 According to the docs, fprintf can fail and will return a negative number on failure. There are clearly many situations where it would be useful to check this value. However, I usually use fprintf to print error messages to stderr. My code will usually look something like this: rc = foo(); if(rc) { fprintf(stderr, "An error print to std occured\n"); //Sometimes stuff will need to be cleaned up here return 1; } In these cases, is it still possible for fprintf to fail? If so, is there anything that can be done to display the error message somehow or is there is a more reliable alternative to fprintf? If not, is there any need to check fprintf when it is used in this way? c share|improve this question asked Jan 31 '11 at 0:18 Rupert Madden-Abbott 6,003104055 add a comment| 5 Answers 5 active oldest votes up vote 11 down vote accepted The C standard says that the file streams stdin, stdout, and stderr shall be connected somewhere, but they don't specify where, of course. It is perfectly feasible to run a program with them redirected: some_program_of_yours >/dev/null 2>&1 &- 2>&-
