Somehow I got the code for this (and many other c functions)
-edit-
Ok, they're all the source code for C functions....in C. Some of the functions are written in assembly, but I don't feel like finding the one's I've seen. It's just nice to see how they did the actual functions written out.
anyways
Code:
/***
*strcmp - compare two strings, returning less than, equal to, or greater than
*
*Purpose:
* STRCMP compares two strings and returns an integer
* to indicate whether the first is less than the second, the two are
* equal, or whether the first is greater than the second.
*
* Comparison is done byte by byte on an UNSIGNED basis, which is to
* say that Null (0) is less than any other character (1-255).
*
*Entry:
* const char * src - string for left-hand side of comparison
* const char * dst - string for right-hand side of comparison
*
*Exit:
* returns -1 if src < dst
* returns 0 if src == dst
* returns +1 if src > dst
*
*Exceptions:
*
*******************************************************************************/
int __cdecl strcmp (
const char * src,
const char * dst
)
{
int ret = 0 ;
while( ! (ret = *(unsigned char *)src - *(unsigned char *)dst) && *dst)
++src, ++dst;
if ( ret < 0 )
ret = -1 ;
else if ( ret > 0 )
ret = 1 ;
return( ret );
}
