* TRAD_SYNOPSIS
sl@0
    23
* #include <string.h>
sl@0

* int strncmp(<[a]>, <[b]>, <[length]>)

    26

sl@0
    27
* size_t <[length]>
sl@0
    28
* <<strncmp>> compares up to <[length]> characters
sl@0
    29
* from the string at <[a]> to the string at <[b]>.
sl@0
    30
* RETURNS
sl@0
    31
* If <<*<[a]>>> sorts lexicographically after <<*<[b]>>>,
sl@0
    32
* <<strncmp>> returns a number greater than zero.  If the two
sl@0
    33
* strings are equivalent, <<strncmp>> returns zero.  If <<*<[a]>>>
sl@0
    34
* sorts lexicographically before <<*<[b]>>>, <<strncmp>> returns a
sl@0
    35
* number less than zero.
sl@0
    36
* PORTABILITY
sl@0
    37
* <<strncmp>> is ANSI C.
sl@0
    38
* <<strncmp>> requires no supporting OS subroutines.

/**
sl@0
    50
Compare some characters of two strings.
sl@0
    51
Compares the first num characters of string1 to the first num characters of string2.
sl@0
    52
The comparison is performed character by character. 
sl@0
    53
If a character that is not equal in both strings is found the function ends 
sl@0
    54
and returns a value that determines which of them was greater.
sl@0
    55
@return a value indicating the lexicographical relation between the strings.
sl@0
    56
@param s1 Null-terminated string to compare 
sl@0
    57
@param s2 Null-terminated string to compare. 
sl@0
    58
