+\(em standard I/O streams
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+#include <stdio.h>
+.P
+extern FILE *stderr, *stdin, *stdout;
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
+ISO\ C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the
+ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard.
+.P
+A file with associated buffering is called a
+.IR stream
+and is declared to be a pointer to a defined type
+.BR FILE .
+The
+\fIfopen\fR()
+function shall create certain descriptive data for a stream and return
+a pointer to designate the stream in all further transactions. Normally,
+there are three open streams with constant pointers declared in the
+.IR <stdio.h>
+header and associated with the standard open files.
+.P
+At program start-up, three streams shall be predefined and need not
+be opened explicitly:
+.IR "standard input"
+(for reading conventional input),
+.IR "standard output"
+(for writing conventional output), and
+.IR "standard error"
+(for writing diagnostic output). When opened, the standard error
+stream is not fully buffered; the standard input and standard output
+streams are fully buffered if and only if the stream can be determined
+not to refer to an interactive device.
+.P
+The following symbolic values in
+.IR <unistd.h>
+define the file descriptors that shall be associated with the C-language
+.IR stdin ,
+.IR stdout ,
+and
+.IR stderr
+when the application is started:
+.IP STDIN_FILENO 14
+Standard input value,
+.IR stdin .
+Its value is 0.
+.IP STDOUT_FILENO 14
+Standard output value,
+.IR stdout .
+Its value is 1.
+.IP STDERR_FILENO 14
+Standard error value,
+.IR stderr .
+Its value is 2.
+.P
+The
+.IR stderr
+stream is expected to be open for reading and writing.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+None.
+.SH ERRORS
+No errors are defined.
