如何比较C中文件中的两个不同位置？

Question

I am implementing the program to zip a file using a run-length encoding compression method. Are there any ways you can compare the characters in the file or compare two file pointers to do that?

I opened the file(zipfilename) that I want to zip and set the file pointer named ftozip to it. Then, I tried to count the number of each character using this file pointer as shown in the code below (if condition).

FILE *ftozip;
ftozip = fopen(argv[1],"r");//open the file that we are zipping
if (ftozip == NULL) {//if there is an error opening
    perror("File cannot be opened ");
}
char zipfilename[30];
strcat(zipfilename, argv[1]);
strcat(zipfilename,".zip");
FILE *zipfilep = fopen(zipfilename, "a"); //zipfile openned to write

int count = 1;
while(1){ //incrementing the characters and storing in the zip  file
    if(*ftozip == *(ftozip +1)) {
        count++;
        char countchar[] = (char)count+(*ftozip);
        fputs(countchar, zipfilep);
        ftozip++;
        continue;
    }
    else {
        count = 1;
        countchar = (char)count + (*ftozip);
        ftozip++;
        if (feop(ftozip){
                break;
            }
            continue;
            }
    }

That resulting in this error "invalid operands to binary == (have 'FILE' and 'FILE')".

与if(*ftozip == *(ftozip +1) ... ， if(*ftozip == *(ftozip +1) ...引用FILE*类型的指针不会访问文件的内容。要按字节读取或写入文件，请使用fread和fwrite代替。
