int_type sputc(char_type c);
Returns: If the output sequence write position is not available, returns overflow(traits​::​to_­int_­type(c)).
Otherwise, stores c at the next pointer for the output sequence, increments the pointer, and returns traits​::​to_­int_­type(c).
streamsize sputn(const char_type* s, streamsize n);
Returns: xsputn(s, n).
