use putc() in a loop to display each character one at a time.
I told Santa what I wanted for Christmas and he washed my mouth out with soap.
Andor is correct.
the puts() function takes a String (char array) as the parameter.
putc() would output 1 character only, and not really useful or effective in this case.

You must have missed the part where he said "in a loop" and "to display each character one at a time". Of course, the question is a bit ambiguous.

Yes that's understood. What my point was. that. putc() outputs one character so if you wish to output words to the console, you'll need to LOOP for each character you wish to output. thus being very ineffective.
puts() would eradicate the need for looping altogether.

I don't see a "thus". These are two solutions and lacking some other restriction, both are equally effective.

Well are you going to design a for loop to loop through and output chars each time? or just call one function to do it. I think we all know which is the most appropriate.
