EOF is a technical term from computing meaning 'End of File'. It is used as a marker or condition indicating that no more data can be read from a data source. In Japanese, it is commonly referred to by its English acronym, or described using native terms.
Referring to the signal or state indicating no more data can be read from a file or stream.
The English acronym is universally understood in Japanese programming and IT contexts. It is used as a noun, often in phrases like 'EOFを検出する' (detect EOF).
ファイルの終わりでEOFが返されます。
EOF is returned at the end of the file.
このループはEOFに達するまで続きます。
This loop continues until EOF is reached.
