| 41 | .Sh SYNOPSIS | ||
| 42 | .Fd #include <string.h> | ||
| 43 | .Ft int | ||
| 44 | .Fn strcmp "const char *s1" "const char *s2" | ||
| 45 | .Ft int | ||
| 46 | .Fn strncmp "const char *s1" "const char *s2" "size_t len" | ||
| 47 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | ||
| 48 | The | ||
| 49 | .Fn strcmp | ||
| 50 | and | ||
| 51 | .Fn strncmp | ||
| 52 | functions lexicographically compare the NUL-terminated strings | ||
| 53 | .Fa s1 | ||
| 54 | and | ||
| 55 | .Fa s2 . | ||
| 56 | .Sh RETURN VALUES | ||
| 57 | The | ||
| 58 | .Fn strcmp | ||
| 59 | and | ||
| 60 | .Fn strncmp | ||
| 61 | return an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, according | ||
| 62 | to whether the string | ||
| 63 | .Fa s1 | ||
| 64 | is greater than, equal to, or less than the string | ||
| 65 | .Fa s2 . | ||
| 66 | The comparison is done using unsigned characters, so that | ||
| 67 | .Ql \e200 | ||
| 68 | is greater than | ||
| 69 | .Ql \e0 . | ||
| 70 | .Pp | ||
| 71 | .Fn strncmp | ||
| 72 | compares at most | ||
| 73 | .Fa len | ||
| 74 | characters. | ||
