remove(3C)remove(3C)NAMEremove - remove file
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
int remove(const char *path);
DESCRIPTIONremove causes the file or empty directory whose name is the string
pointed to by path to be no longer accessible by that name. A subsequent
attempt to open that file using that name will fail, unless the file is
created anew.
For files, remove is identical to unlink. For directories, remove is
identical to rmdir.
See rmdir(2) and unlink(2) for a detailed list of failure conditions.
Return Values
Upon successful completion, remove returns a value of 0; otherwise, it
returns a value of -1 and sets errno to indicate an error.
