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 the read4
API, implement the function int read(char *buf, int n)
that reads n characters from the file.
Note:
The read
function may be called multiple times.
