puts, fputs - put a string on a stream

#include <stdio.h>

puts(s) char *s;

fputs(s, stream) char *s; FILE *stream;

puts() writes the null-terminated string pointed to by s, followed by a NEWLINE character, to the standard output stream stdout.

fputs() writes the null-terminated string pointed to by s to the named output stream.

Neither function writes the terminal null character.

Both routines return EOF on error. This will happen if the routines try to write on a file that has not been opened for writing.

puts() appends a NEWLINE while fputs() does not.
