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.

NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       #include <string.h>

       int bcmp(const void *s1, const void *s2, int n);

       void bcopy(const void *src, void *dest, int n);

       void bzero(void *s, int n);

       void *memccpy(void *dest, const void *src, int c, size_t n);

       void *memchr(const void *s, int c, size_t n);

       int memcmp(const void *s1, const void *s2, size_t n);

       void *memcpy(void *dest, const void *src, size_t n);

       void *memfrob(void *s, size_t n);

       void *memmem(const void *needle, size_t needlelen,
		    const void *haystack, size_t haystacklen);

       void *memmove(void *dest, const void *src, size_t n);

       void *memset(void *s, int c, size_t n);

DESCRIPTION

       The  byte  string  functions  perform operations on strings (byte arrays) that are not necessarily null-terminated.  See the individual man
       pages for descriptions of each function.

NOTES

       The functions bcmp(), bcopy() and bzero() are obsolete.	Use memcmp(), memcpy() and memset() instead.
