MEMSET(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 						 MEMSET(3)

NAME

     memset -- fill a byte string with a byte value

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <string.h>

     void *
     memset(void *b, int c, size_t len);

DESCRIPTION

     The memset() function writes len bytes of value c (converted to an unsigned char) to the string b.

RETURN VALUES

     The memset() function returns its first argument.

SEE ALSO

     bzero(3), memset_pattern(3), memset_s.3, swab(3), wmemset(3)

STANDARDS

     The memset() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90'').

NAME

     bcmp, bcopy, bzero, memccpy, memchr, memcmp, memcpy, memmove, memset -- byte string operations

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <string.h>

     int
     bcmp(const void *b1, const void *b2, size_t len);

     void
     bcopy(const void *src, void *dst, size_t len);

     void
     bzero(void *b, size_t len);

     void *
     memchr(const void *b, int c, size_t len);

     int
     memcmp(const void *b1, const void *b2, size_t len);

     void *
     memccpy(void *dst, const void *src, int c, size_t len);

     void *
     memcpy(void *dst, const void *src, size_t len);

     void *
     memmove(void *dst, const void *src, size_t len);

     void *
     memset(void *b, int c, size_t len);

DESCRIPTION

     These functions operate on variable length strings of bytes.  They do not check for terminating null bytes as the routines listed in
     string(3) do.

     See the specific manual pages for more information.

SEE ALSO

     bcmp(3), bcopy(3), bzero(3), memccpy(3), memchr(3), memcmp(3), memcpy(3), memmove(3), memset(3)

STANDARDS

     The functions memchr(), memcmp(), memcpy(), memmove(), and memset() conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90'').

HISTORY

     The functions bzero() and memccpy() appeared in 4.3BSD; the functions bcmp(), bcopy(), appeared in 4.2BSD.
