STRCHR(3) Library Functions Manual STRCHR(3)

strchr, strrchrlocate character in string

Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

#include <string.h>

char *
strchr(const char *s, int c);

char *
strrchr(const char *s, int c);

The () function locates the first occurrence of c (converted to a char) in the string pointed to by s. The terminating null character is considered to be part of the string; therefore if c is ‘\0’, the functions locate the terminating ‘\0’.

The () function is identical to strchr(), except it locates the last occurrence of c.

The functions strchr() and strrchr() return a pointer to the located character, or NULL if the character does not appear in the string.
