Declaration

Declared in stdio.h

FILE *stdin;
FILE *stdout;
FILE *stderr;

Description

These three streams are open at program start. stdin can be read from and the other two can be written to. If they are connected to an interactive device, stdin and stdout are in line buffered mode, otherwise they are in fully buffered mode. stderr is always in unbuffered mode. All three are open in text mode.
