/* bcmp This function is in the public domain. */ /* NAME bcmp -- compare two memory regions SYNOPSIS int bcmp (char *from, char *to, int count) DESCRIPTION Compare two memory regions and return zero if they are identical, non-zero otherwise. If count is zero, return zero. NOTES No guarantee is made about the non-zero returned value. In particular, the results may be signficantly different than strcmp(), where the return value is guaranteed to be less than, equal to, or greater than zero, according to lexicographical sorting of the compared regions. BUGS */ int bcmp (from, to, count) char *from, *to; int count; { int rtnval = 0; while (count-- > 0) { if (*from++ != *to++) { rtnval = 1; break; } } return (rtnval); }
