reading '\n'

[rasputin]

How can I read '\n' as a char?
I want to read character by character \n from a file and then to have a single char.

'\n' is character like 'a', 'b', .....
you read it like any other character
Reading it from file:

   #include <iostream>
   #include <fstream>
   using namespace std;
   //.......
   ifstream fin ("FileName", ios_base::in);
   char ch;
   //reading file char by char (better is read bigger block into buffer)
   while (fin.get() != '\n');
   //now we can read char behind '\n'
   ch = fin.get();
   //....... 

You probably wanted something else, but i hope it help
