dilemma in control flow

hello im facing a queer problem when i execute the foll code in unix

Code:
# include <stdio.h>
# include <unistd.h>

main(int argc,char *argv[])
{
	FILE *fp = fopen("/ras/chirag/fifotest/file.fifo","a");
	int i=1;
	fprintf(fp,argv[1]);
	printf("I SLEEP");
	system("date");
	for (i=0;i<50;i++)
	{
	//printf("do nothing\n");
	}
	i=sleep(25);
	printf("%d",i);
	printf("I WAKE UP");
	system("date");
	fclose(fp);
}

the above code first executes the date command and then sleeps for 25 secs and then prints the strings "I SLEEP" and "I WAKE UP" in the end...

the output i obtained is:
Code:
Fri Feb 10 19:10:16 CST 2006
Fri Feb 10 19:10:41 CST 2006
I SLEEP0I WAKE UP


can anyone help me why is such a flow occuring and what can be done to get it the normal way? thanks in advance............

GFS_PIO_GETS(3) 														   GFS_PIO_GETS(3)

NAME
gfs_pio_gets - read one line SYNOPSIS
#include <gfarm/gfarm.h> char *gfs_pio_gets (GFS_File f, char * s, size_t size); DESCRIPTION
gfs_pio_gets() reads one line from the file specified by the parameter gf to the buffer specified by the parameter s. You need to specify the size of the buffer by the parameter size. Unlike gfs_pio_getline(3), this function doesn't remove newline character at the end of the buffer. But if whole contents of the line can- not be stored to the buffer due to its length, or if the file reaches the end without newline, there will be no newline at the end of the buffer. In any case, one '' character is appended to the end of the buffer. If the file reaches its end, the length of the string in the buffer becomes 0. RETURN VALUES
NULL The function terminated successfully. GFARM_ERR_NO_MEMORY Insufficient memory was available. Others An error except the above occurred. The reason is shown by its pointed strings. EXAMPLES
EXAMPLE OF GFS_PIO_GETS FUNCTION #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <gfarm/gfarm.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { char *e; GFS_File gf; char buffer[512]; e = gfarm_initialize(&argc, &argv); if (e != NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "gfarm_initialize: %s ", e); return (EXIT_FAILURE); } if (argc <= 1) { fprintf(stderr, "missing gfarm filename "); return (EXIT_FAILURE); } e = gfs_pio_open(argv[1], GFARM_FILE_RDONLY, &gf); if (e != NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "%s: %s ", argv[1], e); return (EXIT_FAILURE); } e = gfs_pio_set_view_global(gf, 0); if (e != NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "%s: gfs_pio_set_view_global: %s ", argv[1], e); return (EXIT_FAILURE); } while ((e = gfs_pio_gets(gf, buffer, sizeof buffer)) != NULL && *buffer != '') { printf("got: %s", buffer); } if (e != NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "ERROR: %s ", e); return (EXIT_FAILURE); } e = gfs_pio_close(gf); if (e != NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "gfs_pio_close: %s ", e); return (EXIT_FAILURE); } e = gfarm_terminate(); if (e != NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "gfarm_initialize: %s ", e); return (EXIT_FAILURE); } return (EXIT_SUCCESS); } SEE ALSO
