const void *s1,
const void *s2,
size_t n);
PARAMETERS
s1 Is a pointer to the first area to be compared.

n Is the number of bytes to compare.
DESCRIPTION
The bcmp() function compares the first n bytes of the areas pointed to by the s1 and s2 parame-
ters.
NOTES
The bcmp() function can be called by native processes only.
