       Since it may be  implemented  as  a  macro,  putwc()  may  treat  a  stream  argument  with  side-effects
       incorrectly.  In  particular,  putwc(wc,*f++) need not work correctly. Therefore, use of this function is
       not recommended; fputwc() should be used instead.

       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.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard.

       The  putwc() function shall be equivalent to fputwc(), except that if it is implemented as a macro it may
       evaluate stream more than once, so the argument should never be an expression with side-effects.

       Refer to fputwc().
