14 The wmemcmp() function is the wide-character equivalent of the mem‐
15 cmp(3) function. It compares the n wide-characters starting at s1 and
16 the n wide-characters starting at s2.
17
19 The wmemcmp() function returns zero if the wide-character arrays of
20 size n at s1 and s2 are equal. It returns an integer greater than zero
21 if at the first differing position i (i < n), the corresponding wide-
22 character s1[i] is greater than s2[i]. It returns an integer less than
23 zero if at the first differing position i (i < n), the corresponding
24 wide-character s1[i] is less than s2[i].
