Abandoned

Since infogami has been abandoned by its creators, I’m out too. Back to web.fisher.cx for me. Everything that was here is there.

Just thinking out loud

C standard library names

If you register and log in you can add comments to my pages. If viewing the main blog page, click the # underneath an entry to comment on it.

Some are fairly obvious

  • strcat: string concatenate
  • strchr: (search) string (for) character
  • strcmp: string compare
  • strcpy: string copy
  • strdup: string duplicate
  • strlen: string length
  • strstr: (search) string (for) string
  • strtok: (search) string (for) tokens

Some are more cryptic

  • strspn: string span
  • strcspn: string complement span
  • strpbrk: string pointer break
  • strcoll: string collate
  • strxfrm: string transform

I guess that makes it hard for C programmers to make fun of car & cdr.
