The function mlen() of the library stdlib.h is used to get the length of a multi-byte character.

Usage of mblen():

int mblen ( const char * pmb, size_t max );

The pmb (pointer multibyte character) pointer is pointing to the multi-byte value where you want to know the size of. It will only examine at most max bytes.

Parameters:

The function mbtowc(), that is part of the stdlib.h library, is used to convert a multi-byte character to wide character.

Usage of mbtowc():

int mbtowc ( wchar_t * pwc, const char * pmb, size_t max );

The multibyte character pointed by pmb (pointer multibyte character) is converted to a wide character which is stored at the location that is pointed by pwc (pointer wide character). The length in bytes of the multiby character is returned. More »

The function qsort() of the stdlib.h is used to sort the elements of an array.

Usage of qsort():

void qsort ( void * base, size_t num, size_t size, int ( * comparator ) ( const void *, const void * ) );

The function qsort() sorts the num element of the array pointed by base. Every element has a size of size bytes long. The qsort function will use the comparator function to determine the order of the elements.

The function will not return a value. The content is modified in the newly sorted order.

Parameters:

The function bsearch() of the stdlib.h is used to do a binary search in an array.

Usage of bsearch():

void * bsearch ( const void * key, const void * base, size_t num, size_t size, int ( * comparator ) ( const void *, const void * ) );

It is searching for a given key in the array that is pointed to by base. Base is formed by the number of elements (num). Each element has a size of size bytes. The function will return a void* pointer to the first element that is matching the search key. The function compares each element to the key by calling the comparator. More »
