FUNCTION
<<strncmp>>---character string compare
INDEX
strncmp
ANSI_SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
int strncmp(const char *<[a]>, const char * <[b]>, size_t <[length]>);
TRAD_SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
int strncmp(<[a]>, <[b]>, <[length]>)
char *<[a]>;
char *<[b]>;
size_t <[length]>
DESCRIPTION
<<strncmp>> compares up to <[length]> characters
from the string at <[a]> to the string at <[b]>.
RETURNS
If <<*<[a]>>> sorts lexicographically after <<*<[b]>>>,
<<strncmp>> returns a number greater than zero. If the two
strings are equivalent, <<strncmp>> returns zero. If <<*<[a]>>>
sorts lexicographically before <<*<[b]>>>, <<strncmp>> returns a
number less than zero.
PORTABILITY
<<strncmp>> is ANSI C.
<<strncmp>> requires no supporting OS subroutines.
