The following paragraph is confusing "If rdbuf() is a null pointer (i.e. there is no associated stream buffer), then state | badbit is assigned.

I'm pretty sure that the example is not guaranteed to work. You can only reliably putback the last character read because otherwise the implementation would have to allocate and maintain an arbitrarily sized input buffer. Nick H 194.74.130.171 00:15, 18 August 2021 (PDT)
