2 FUNCTION
3 <<strncmp>>---character string compare
5 INDEX
6 strncmp
8 ANSI_SYNOPSIS
9 #include <string.h>
10 int strncmp(const char *<[a]>, const char * <[b]>, size_t <[length]>);
12 TRAD_SYNOPSIS
13 #include <string.h>
14 int strncmp(<[a]>, <[b]>, <[length]>)
15 char *<[a]>;
16 char *<[b]>;
17 size_t <[length]>
19 DESCRIPTION
20 <<strncmp>> compares up to <[length]> characters
21 from the string at <[a]> to the string at <[b]>.
23 RETURNS
24 If <<*<[a]>>> sorts lexicographically after <<*<[b]>>>,
25 <<strncmp>> returns a number greater than zero. If the two
26 strings are equivalent, <<strncmp>> returns zero. If <<*<[a]>>>
27 sorts lexicographically before <<*<[b]>>>, <<strncmp>> returns a
28 number less than zero.
30 PORTABILITY
31 <<strncmp>> is ANSI C.
33 <<strncmp>> requires no supporting OS subroutines.
