2 FUNCTION
3 <<strcmp>>---character string compare
5 INDEX
6 strcmp
8 ANSI_SYNOPSIS
9 #include <string.h>
10 int strcmp(const char *<[a]>, const char *<[b]>);
12 TRAD_SYNOPSIS
13 #include <string.h>
14 int strcmp(<[a]>, <[b]>)
15 char *<[a]>;
16 char *<[b]>;
18 DESCRIPTION
19 <<strcmp>> compares the string at <[a]> to
20 the string at <[b]>.
22 RETURNS
23 If <<*<[a]>>> sorts lexicographically after <<*<[b]>>>,
24 <<strcmp>> returns a number greater than zero. If the two
25 strings match, <<strcmp>> returns zero. If <<*<[a]>>>
26 sorts lexicographically before <<*<[b]>>>, <<strcmp>> returns a
27 number less than zero.
29 PORTABILITY
30 <<strcmp>> is ANSI C.
32 <<strcmp>> requires no supporting OS subroutines.
