+The program below demonstrates the use of
+.BR fread ()
+by parsing /bin/sh ELF executable in binary mode and printing its
+magic and class:
+.PP

+./a.out
+ELF magic: 0x7f454c46
+Class: 0x2

+main(void)
+{
+ FILE *fp = fopen("/bin/sh", "rb");
+ if (!fp) {
+ perror("fopen");
+ return EXIT_FAILURE;
+ }
+
+ unsigned char buffer[4];
+
+ size_t ret = fread(buffer, 4, 1, fp);
+ if (ret != 1) {
+ fprintf(stderr, "fread() failed: %zu\en", ret);
+ exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+ }
+
+ printf("ELF magic: %#x%x%x%x\en", buffer[0], buffer[1], buffer[2],
