  |   The main problem with scanf() is it unable to read properly     |
  |   a string that have "space" character.                           |
  |                                                                   |
  |   This example will show how to read a string that have "space"   |
  |   character.                                                      |

  |   However, this example uses Low-Level I/O                        |
