NAME

bput - put a random file record

SYNOPSIS

bput(recnum)
double recnum;

DESCRIPTION

Bput writes record number recnum to the current file (see initio(io)).  Records of a random file are of the same length as the buffer and are numbered sequentially starting with one.  If recnum is zero, then the write is sequential, in other words, the next record is written.  The pointers within the buffer are reset. 

This function resets the current file. 

This function implements the PUT statement.

DIAGNOSTICS

Error 54 (Bad file mode) is generated if the file is not open for random I/O.
