NAME

       wcscmp - compare two wide-character strings

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wchar.h>

       int wcscmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2);

DESCRIPTION

       The  wcscmp() function is the wide-character equivalent of the strcmp(3) function.  It compares the wide-
       character string pointed to by s1 and the wide-character string pointed to by s2.

RETURN VALUE

       The wcscmp() function returns zero if the wide-character strings at s1 and s2 are equal.  It  returns  an
       integer greater than zero if at the first differing position i, the corresponding wide-character s1[i] is
       greater  than  s2[i].   It  returns  an  integer less than zero if at the first differing position i, the
       corresponding wide-character s1[i] is less than s2[i].
