How do I read a sound file in C?

I want to make a sound mini-player using double-chained list, and I wanted to know which library and what functions does it use to read a sound file in c?

You can use include #include "wav.h"

  

Follow the example:

#include <stdio.h>
#include "wav.h"
main()

{
    int16_t *samples = NULL;

    wavread("track.wav", &samples);

    printf("No. of channels: %d\n",     header->num_channels);
    printf("Sample rate:     %d\n",     header->sample_rate);
    printf("Bit rate:        %dkbps\n", header->byte_rate*8 / 1000);
    printf("Bits per sample: %d\n\n",     header->bps);

    printf("Sample 0:        %d\n", samples[0]);
    printf("Sample 1:        %d\n", samples[1]);

    // Modify the header values & samples before writing the new file
    wavwrite("track2.wav", samples);

    free(header);
    free(samples);
}
  

wav.h
