- NAME
-
- bcmp -- compare two memory regions
-
- SYNOPSIS
-
- int bcmp (char *from, char *to, int count)
-
- DESCRIPTION
-
- Compare two memory regions and return zero if they are identical,
- non-zero otherwise. If count is zero, return zero.
-
- NOTES
-
- No guarantee is made about the non-zero returned value. In
- particular, the results may be signficantly different than
- strcmp(), where the return value is guaranteed to be less than,
- equal to, or greater than zero, according to lexicographical
- sorting of the compared regions.
