# The API: int read4(char *buf) reads 4 characters at a time from a file.# The return value is the actual number of characters read. For example, it returns 3 if there is only 3 characters left in the file.# By using the read4 API, implement the function int read(char *buf, int n) that reads n characters from the file.# Note:
