/* FUNGET.C illustrates getting and ungetting characters from a file.
 * Functions illustrated include:
 *      getc            getchar         ungetc
 *      fgetc           fgetchar
 *
 * Although getchar and fgetchar are not specifically used in the example,
 * they are equivalent to using getc or fgetc with stdin. See HEXDUMP.C
 * for another example of getc and fgetc.
