strcspn -- span the complement of a string
LIBRARY

#include <string.h> size_t strcspn(const char *s, const char *charset);
DESCRIPTION
The strcspn() function spans the initial part of the nul-terminated string s as long as the characters from s do not occur in string charset (it spans the complement of charset).
RETURN VALUES
