NAME strcasecmp - compare two strings, case independent SYNOPSIS strcasecmp(s1, s2) TYPES s1 string s2 string return integer (1, 0 or -1) DESCRIPTION Let n1 = size(s1), n2 = size(s2) and m = min(n1, n2). 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 n1 is greater than, equal to, or less than n2. Note that null characters within the strings are included in the comparison. This function is case independent EXAMPLE strcasecmp("ab", "aBc") == -1 strcasecmp("abc", "aBb") == 1 strcasecmp("abc", "abc") == 0 strcasecmp("abc", "aBc") == 0 strcasecmp("abc", "aBd") == -1 strcasecmp("abc\0", "aBc") == 1 strcasecmp("a\0b", "A\0c") == -1 LIMITS none LINK LIBRARY FLAG stringcaserel(STRING *s1, STRING *s2) SEE ALSO strcat, strcpy, strerror, strlen, strncmp, strncasecmp strncpy, strpos, strprintf, strscan, strscanf, substr ## Copyright (C) 2013 Christoph Zurnieden ## ## Calc is open software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under ## the terms of the version 2.1 of the GNU Lesser General Public License ## as published by the Free Software Foundation. ## ## Calc is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ## ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY ## or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
