|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strcmp
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn strncmp
|
|
functions
|
|
lexicographically compare the nul-terminated strings
|
|
.Fa s1
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa s2 .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strcmp
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn strncmp
|
|
return an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, according
|
|
to whether the string
|
|
.Fa s1
|
|
is greater than, equal to, or less than the string
|
|
.Fa s2 .
|
|
The comparison is done using unsigned characters, so that
|
|
.Ql \e200
|
|
is greater than
|
|
.Ql \e0 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strncmp
|
|
compares not more than
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
characters.

|
|
is zero
|
|

|
|
returns always 0.
