getchar () and EOF

[vgoel38]

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>

main()
{
int nc;
for (nc = 0; getchar() != EOF; ++nc)
;
printf("%d\n", nc);
getch();
}

i m not getting any output.

for (nc = 0; getchar() != EOF; ++nc)
;//your for loop only does this command (nothing)
printf("%d\n", nc); 

use braces instead or remove that pointless ;

for (nc = 0; getchar() != EOF; ++nc) {
printf("%d\n", nc); 
}

due to this for loop , nc is getting incremented..nd that is what to be done. and i dont want printf statement to come under for loop
