getint like a getchar?

hey,

is there an getint function similar to getc, while reading files in C -- to read 16bit integer values instead of character values?

Thanks,
Ashlesha.

read() ?

Code:

#include    <stdio.h>
#include    <stdlib.h>

int main( int argc, char * argv[] ){

int integer;
int bytesRead;

    bytesRead = read( fileno( stdin ), &integer, sizeof( int ) );
    printf( "The integer is decimal %d, hex %X (%d bytes read)\n", integer, integer, bytesRead );
    exit( integer );
}
