getc(FILE *stream), prototyped in stdio.h, reads the next character from stream and returns it, or returns EOF if an error occurs or end of file has been reached.
getch(), prototyped in both conio.h and curses.h, performs a blocking-style hardware-based read of the keyboard. If no key is available, by default getch()will wait until a key is available. Options or functions usually exist to check to see if a key is available in the system keyboard buffer.
getchar() is the same as getc(stdin).

What else can I help you with?
What is the purpose of a getchar function?
The getchar() function gets a single character from stdin. Here is a very basic example: #include <stdio.h> int main() { char ch; do { ch = getchar(); putchar(ch); } while (ch != ';'); return 0; } It reads from data you input and prints it again of the screen after you press key. It works until it reaches ";" symbol. The getchar() function is equivalent to getc(stdin).
How is the getchar function used in a C program?
The getchar() is used in 'C' programming language because it can read the character from the Standard input(i.e..from the user keyboard),and converts in to the ASCII value.
How do you read a character from the keyboard and will store it in the variable?
Use the scanf() function from the C standard library.
What is function get in C programming?
There is no 'get' in the standard libraries, but for 'getc', 'getch', 'getchar', 'fgetc' etc you can find useful information in the help/manual.
How Can We Solve The Limitation Of Getchar And Scan Function?
Getchar:-Reading a single character can be done by using the function getchar.Syntax:- variable_name = getchar ( );Variable_name is a valid 'c' name that has been declared as char type. When this statement is encountered, the computer waits until a key is pressed and then assigns this character as a value to getchar function. Since getchar is used on the right hand side of an assignment statement, the character value of getchar is in turn assigned to the variable_name on the left. The getchar function may be called successively to read the characters contained in a line of text. Getchar accepts space character.Scanf ("control strings",arg1, arg2, ………… argn);The control string specifies the field format in which the data is to be entered and the arguments arg 1, arg 2, arg n specify the address of locations where the data is stored. Scanf does not accept space character.

Which function enables to receive single character input?
getchar();
What is the use of getchar?
gets()Reads characters from stdin and stores them as a string into str until a newline character ('\n') or the End-of-File is reached.The ending newline character ('\n') is not included in the string.getchar()Returns the next character from the standard input (stdin).It is equivalent to getc with stdin as its argument. === ===
Is that any other way to input data in c language other than scanf function?
read, fread, gets, fgets, getc, fgetc, getchar, getch
What is getchar in c language?
Gets a single key stroke from the keyboard.
What loops does not need a counter?
Random example: while ((c= getchar()) != EOF) putchar (c);
What is the header file for getchar in c plus plus?
I think its in conio.h or stdio.h
What the getchar is all about?
Consider an example in this we are just accepting a single character and printing it on the console. Example: { char ch; ch = getchar(); printf ('Accepted Character : %c', ch); }
