FUNCTION
<<fwrite>>---write array elements

INDEX
	fwrite

ANSI_SYNOPSIS
	#include <stdio.h>
	size_t fwrite(const void *<[buf]>, size_t <[size]>,
		      size_t <[count]>, FILE *<[fp]>);

TRAD_SYNOPSIS
	#include <stdio.h>
	size_t fwrite(<[buf]>, <[size]>, <[count]>, <[fp]>)
	char *<[buf]>;
	size_t <[size]>;
	size_t <[count]>;
	FILE *<[fp]>;

DESCRIPTION
<<fwrite>> attempts to copy, starting from the memory location
<[buf]>, <[count]> elements (each of size <[size]>) into the file or
stream identified by <[fp]>.  <<fwrite>> may copy fewer elements than
<[count]> if an error intervenes.

<<fwrite>> also advances the file position indicator (if any) for
<[fp]> by the number of @emph{characters} actually written.

RETURNS
If <<fwrite>> succeeds in writing all the elements you specify, the
result is the same as the argument <[count]>.  In any event, the
result is the number of complete elements that <<fwrite>> copied to
the file.

PORTABILITY
ANSI C requires <<fwrite>>.

Supporting OS subroutines required: <<close>>, <<fstat>>, <<isatty>>,
<<lseek>>, <<read>>, <<sbrk>>, <<write>>.
