The API: int read4(char *buf)
reads 4 characters at a time from a file.
The return value is the actual number of characters read. For example, it returns 3 if there is only 3 characters left in the file.
By using the read4
API, implement the function int read(char *buf, int n)
that reads n characters from the file.
Note:
The read
function may be called multiple times.
Example 1:
Given buf = "abc" read("abc", 1) // returns "a" read("abc", 2); // returns "bc" read("abc", 1); // returns ""
Example 2:
Given buf = "abc" read("abc", 4) // returns "abc" read("abc", 1); // returns ""
