NAME
bcmp, bcopy, bzero, memccpy, memchr, memcmp, memcpy, memfrob, memmem, memmove, memset - byte string operations
LIBRARY
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h> int bcmp(const void s1[.n], const void s2[.n], size_t n); void bcopy(const void src[.n], void dest[.n], size_t n); void bzero(void s[.n], size_t n); void *memccpy(void dest[.n], const void src[.n], int c, size_t n); void *memchr(const void s[.n], int c, size_t n); int memcmp(const void s1[.n], const void s2[.n], size_t n); void *memcpy(void dest[.n], const void src[.n], size_t n); void *memfrob(void s[.n], size_t n); void *memmem(const void haystack[.haystacklen], size_t haystacklen, const void needle[.needlelen], size_t needlelen); void *memmove(void dest[.n], const void src[.n], size_t n); void *memset(void s[.n], int c, size_t n);
DESCRIPTION
The byte string functions perform operations on strings (byte arrays) that are not necessarily null-terminated. See the individual man pages for descriptions of each function.
NOTES
The functions bcmp() and bcopy() are obsolete. Use memcmp() and memmove() instead.
