Prototypes you might find useful:
stdio.h
int
fclose(FILE *stream);
Closes the file associated with the file pointer “stream”.
char
*fgets( char *s, int n, FILE *stream);
Reads at most (n-1) characters from stream and places them in s. Returns
a pointer to s.
FILE
*fopen(const char *filename, const char *mode);
Opens the file named by filename with the mode indicated by mode. Returns
NULL on failure. The mode string is “rt” for reading a text file and
“wt” for writing a text file.
int
fprintf(FILE *stream, const char *format, ....);
Same as printf() but outputs to the file pointed to by stream.
int
printf(const char *format, .....);
Prints formated output to the standard output device (screen).
math.h
double
exp(double x);
Computes the value of e^x
double
fabs(double x);
Computes the absolute value of x;
double
log(double x);
Computes the natural log of x; errors occur if x <= 0.
double
pow(double x, double y);
Computes x^y.
double
sqrt(double x);
Computes the square root of x where x >= 0.
stdlib.h
double
atof(const char *s);
Converts the text pointed to by s to a double value.
int
atoi(const char *s);
Converts the text pointed to by s to an integer value.
void
*calloc(size_t n, size_t size);
Allocates space for an array of n objects, each of size size
void
*malloc(size_t size);
Allocates space for an object of size size
Void
free(void *ptr);
Deallocates the space pointed to by ptr
int
rand(void);
Returns a pseudo-random integer in the range of 0 to RAND_MAX
void
*realloc(void *ptr, size_t size);
Changes the size of the object pointed to by ptr
void
srand(unsigned int seed);
Uses the seed to initialize a new sequence of values from rand();
