💖 streqvcmp(3) — the string-equivalence girlie 💖

okay so this page is from the Programmer's Manual, and it's literally about comparing two strings with an equivalence mapping. no cap, that's the whole main character energy here.

✨ NAME ✨

streqvcmp — compare two strings with an equivalence mapping.

---

💅 SYNOPSIS 💅

#include <your-opts.h>
cc [...] -o outfile infile.c -lopts [...]

int streqvcmp(char const * str1, char const * str2);

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Using a character mapping, two strings are compared for “equivalence” — that's the vibe. Each input character is mapped to a comparison character, and then the mapped-to characters are compared for the two NUL terminated input strings. It's giving character-by-character matchmaking, fr fr.

One important iykyk: this function name is mapped to option_streqvcmp so as to not conflict with the POSIX name space. periodt.

The arguments are iconic and simple:

• str1 — first string
• str2 — second string

---

🔥 RETURN VALUE 🔥

the difference between two differing characters — that's it, that's the return value. 💅

🚨 ERRORS 🚨

🚨 none checked. Caller responsible for seg faults. That's the original energy, bestie — no extra validation promised here. 😭
