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 theread4
API, implement the functionint read(char *buf, int n)
that readsncharacters from the file.
Note:
Theread
function will only be called once for each test case.
