This program counts the number of bytes in a C source file.
The program prompts the user for a file name and then concatenates
the ".c" extension to this name. It uses the function getc to read
the characters.
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
main( )
{
FILE* fptr;
char extension[] = ".c";
char file_name[FILENAME_MAX]; /* defined in stdio.h*/
int char_count;
printf("\n\n\tFile name (NO extension):\t");
scanf("%s",file_name);
strcat(file_name,extension);
fptr=fopen(file_name,"rb");
for(char_count=0; getc(fptr) !=EOF; ++char_count);
printf("\n\tByte size:\t%d", char_count);
fclose(fptr);
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
