NAME

12       strcspn — get the length of a complementary substring
13

SYNOPSIS

15       #include <string.h>
16
17       size_t strcspn(const char *s1, const char *s2);
18

DESCRIPTION

20       The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with  the
21       ISO C  standard.  Any  conflict between the requirements described here
22       and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This  volume  of  POSIX.1‐2017
23       defers to the ISO C standard.
24
25       The strcspn() function shall compute the length (in bytes) of the maxi‐
26       mum initial segment of the string  pointed  to  by  s1  which  consists
27       entirely of bytes not from the string pointed to by s2.
28

RETURN VALUE

30       The  strcspn() function shall return the length of the computed segment
31       of the string pointed to by s1; no return value is reserved to indicate
32       an error.
