NAME
     btowc, wctob — convert between wide and single-byte characters

LIBRARY
     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <wchar.h>

     wint_t
     btowc(int c);

     int
     wctob(wint_t c);

DESCRIPTION
     The btowc() function converts a single-byte character into a correspond‐
     ing wide character.  If the character is EOF or not valid in the initial
     shift state, btowc() returns WEOF.

     The wctob() function converts a wide character into a corresponding sin‐
     gle-byte character.  If the wide character is WEOF or not able to be rep‐
     resented as a single byte in the initial shift state, wctob() returns
     WEOF.

     (“POSIX.1”).
