- *int memcmp(buf1, buf2, count) - compare memory for lexical order

- *Purpose:
- * Compares count bytes of memory starting at buf1 and buf2
- * and find if equal or which one is first in lexical order.
- *
- *Entry:
- * void *buf1, *buf2 - pointers to memory sections to compare
- * size_t count - length of sections to compare
- *
- *Exit:
- * returns < 0 if buf1 < buf2
- * returns 0 if buf1 == buf2
- * returns > 0 if buf1 > buf2
