STRCHR(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual STRCHR(3)
NAME strchr, strrchr, strchrnul - locate character in string
LIBRARY Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS #include <string.h>
char * strchr(const char *s, int c);
char * strrchr(const char *s, int c);
char * strchrnul(const char *s, int c);
DESCRIPTION The strchr() function locates the first occurrence of c (converted to a char) in the string pointed to by s. The terminating null character is considered part of the string; therefore if c is `\0', the functions locate the terminating `\0'.
The strrchr() function is identical to strchr() except it locates the last occurrence of c.
The strchrnul() function is identical to strchr() except that if c is not found in s a pointer to the terminating `\0' is returned.
RETURN VALUES The functions strchr() and strrchr() return a pointer to the located character, or NULL if the character does not appear in the string.
strchrnul() returns a pointer to the terminating `\0' if the character does not appear in the string.
