BCMP(3)			    BSD Programmer's Manual		       BCMP(3)

NAME
     bcmp - compare byte string

SYNOPSIS
     #include <string.h>

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

DESCRIPTION
     The bcmp() function compares byte string b1 against byte string b2, re-
     turning zero if they are identical, non-zero otherwise.  Both strings are
     assumed to be len bytes long.  Zero-length strings are always identical.

     The strings may overlap.

SEE ALSO
     bcmp(3),  memcmp(3),  strcasecmp(3),  strcmp(3),  strcoll(3),  strxfrm(3)

HISTORY
     A bcmp() function first appeared in 4.2BSD.
