NAME

       strcoll - compare two strings using the current locale

SYNOPSIS

       #include <string.h>

       int strcoll(const char *s1, const char *s2);

DESCRIPTION

       The strcoll() function compares the two strings s1 and s2.  It returns an integer less than, equal to, or
       greater  than  zero  if s1 is found, respectively, to be less than, to match, or be greater than s2.  The
       comparison is based on strings interpreted as appropriate for the program's current locale  for  category
       LC_COLLATE.  (See setlocale(3)).

RETURN VALUE

       The  strcoll()  function  returns  an  integer  less than, equal to, or greater than zero if s1 is found,
       respectively, to be less than, to match, or be greater than s2, when both are interpreted as  appropriate
       for the current locale.
