=====strncmp===== Syntax: #include int strncmp( const char *str1, const char *str2, size_t count ); The strncmp() function compares at most count characters of str1 and str2. The return value is as follows: ^Return value ^Explanation^ |less than 0 |''str1'' is less than ''str2''| |equal to 0 |''str1'' is equal to ''str2''| |greater than 0 |''str1'' is greater than ''str2''| If there are less than count characters in either string, then the comparison will stop after the first null termination is encountered.
