NAME
wcscmp - compare two wide-character strings
LIBRARY
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>int wcscmp(const wchar_t *\ns1\n, const wchar_t *\ns2\n);DESCRIPTION
The wcscmp() function is the wide-character equivalent of the strcmp(3) function. It compares the wide-character string pointed to by s1 and the wide-character string pointed to by s2.
RETURN VALUE
The wcscmp() function returns zero if the wide-character strings at s1 and s2 are equal. It returns an integer greater than zero if at the first differing position i, the corresponding wide-character s1[i] is greater than s2[i]. It returns an integer less than zero if at the first differing position i, the corresponding wide-character s1[i] is less than s2[i].
