Is there an equivalent to the perl command chomp in C? And if
there is no exact equivalent command, how would I go about
removing the "\n" at the end of a stdin?

int flushln(FILE *f) {
int ch;

while (('\n' != (ch = getc(f))) && (EOF != ch)) continue;
return ch;
}

That's a useful function, but it's doesn't bear any particular
resemblance to Perl's chomp function.

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.
