DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
The ssttrrccmmpp() and ssttrrnnccmmpp() functions lexicographically compare the null
terminated strings _s_1 and _s_2.
RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEESS
The ssttrrccmmpp() and ssttrrnnccmmpp() return an integer greater than, equal to, or
less than 0, according as the string _s_1 is greater than, equal to, or
less than the string _s_2. The comparison is done using unsigned charac
ters, so that `\200' is greater than `\0'.
The ssttrrnnccmmpp() compares not more than _l_e_n characters.
