NAME
|
||||
strncmp - compare two strings up to a specified number of characters
|
||||
|
||||
SYNOPSIS
|
||||
strncmp(s1, s2, n)
|
||||
|
||||
TYPES
|
||||
s1 string
|
||||
s2 string
|
||||
n nonnegative integer
|
||||
|
||||
return integer (1, 0 or -1)
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
Let n1 = size(s1), n2 = size(s2) and m = min(n1, n2, n).
|
||||
This function compares up to m values of consecutive characters
|
||||
in the strings s1 and s2. If an inequality is encountered, the
|
||||
function returns 1 or -1 according as the greater character is
|
||||
in s1 or s2. If there has been no inequality, the function
|
||||
returns 1, 0, or -1 according as min(n1, n) is greater than, equal
|
||||
to, or less than min(n2, n); in particular, if n1 and n2 are
|
||||
both greater than equal to n, 0 is returned.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
EXAMPLE
|
||||
strncmp("abc", "xyz", 0) == 0
|
||||
strncmp("abc", "xyz", 1) == -1
|
||||
strncmp("abc", "", 1) == 1
|
||||
strncmp("a", "b", 2) == -1
|
||||
strncmp("ab", "ac", 2) == -1
|
||||
strncmp("\0ac", "\0b", 2) == -1
|
||||
strncmp("ab", "abc", 2) == 0
|
||||
strncmp("abc", "abd", 2) == 0
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
LIMITS
|
||||
none
|
||||
|
||||
LINK LIBRARY
|
||||
This function uses FLAG stringrel(STRING *s1, STRING *s2),
|
||||
temporarily replacing the string sizes by min(n1,n) and min(n2,n).
