<h3 class="section">4.48 <code>puts</code>&mdash;write a character string</h3>
<p><a name="index-puts-253"></a><a name="index-g_t_005fputs_005fr-254"></a><strong>Synopsis</strong>
<pre class="example"> #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
int puts(const char *<var>s</var>);
int _puts_r(struct _reent *<var>reent</var>, const char *<var>s</var>);
</pre>
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
<code>puts</code> writes the string at <var>s</var> (followed by a newline, instead of
the trailing null) to the standard output stream.
<p>The alternate function <code>_puts_r</code> is a reentrant version. The extra
argument <var>reent</var> is a pointer to a reentrancy structure.
<p><br>
<strong>Returns</strong><br>
If successful, the result is a nonnegative integer; otherwise, the
result is <code>EOF</code>.
<p><br>
<strong>Portability</strong><br>
ANSI C requires <code>puts</code>, but does not specify that the result on
success must be <code>0</code>; any non-negative value is permitted.
<p>Supporting OS subroutines required: <code>close</code>, <code>fstat</code>, <code>isatty</code>,
<code>lseek</code>, <code>read</code>, <code>sbrk</code>, <code>write</code>.
