SYNOPSIS
#include <strings.h>
int strcasecmp(const char *s1, const char *s2);
int strncasecmp(const char *s1, const char *s2, size_t n);
DESCRIPTION
The
strcasecmp()
function compares the two strings

s2.
The
strncasecmp()
function is similar, except it compares
the only first n bytes of s1.

and
strncasecmp()
functions return

(or the first
n bytes thereof) is found, respectively, to be

s2.
