LIBRARY

SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
#include <strings.h>

DESCRIPTION
The string functions perform operations on null-terminated strings. See the individual man pages for descriptions of each function.

strcasecmp(3)
    Compare two strings, ignoring case.

strncasecmp(3)
    Compare the first bytes of two strings, ignoring case.

stpcpy(3)
    Copy a string, returning a pointer to the end of the resulting string.

strcat(3)
    Append a string into an existing string.

strchr(3)
    Find the first occurrence of a character in a string.

strcmp(3)
    Compare two strings.

strcoll(3)
    Compare two strings, using the current locale.

strcpy(3)
    Copy a string.

strcspn(3)
    Calculate the length of the initial segment of a string which does not contain any of the rejected bytes.

strdup(3)
    Duplicate a string in memory allocated using malloc(3).

strfry(3)
    Randomly swap the characters in a string.

strlen(3)
    Return the length of a string.

strncat(3)
    Append non-null bytes from an array to a string, and null-terminate the result.

strncmp(3)
    Compare the first bytes of two strings.

strpbrk(3)
    Find the first occurrence in a string of one of the bytes in the accepted bytes.

strrchr(3)
    Find the last occurrence of a character in a string.

strsep(3)
    Extract the initial field in a string that is delimited by one of the delimiter bytes.

strspn(3)
    Calculate the length of the initial segment of a string that consists entirely of accepted bytes.

strstr(3)
    Find the first occurrence of a substring in a string.

strtok(3)
    Extract tokens from a string that are delimited by one of the delimiter bytes.

strxfrm(3)
    Transforms a string to the current locale and copies the first bytes to a buffer.

strncpy(3)
    Fill a fixed-size buffer with leading non-null bytes from a source array, padding with null bytes as needed.
