NAME
       wcscmp - compare two wide-character strings


SYNOPSIS
       #include <wchar.h>

       int wcscmp(const wchar_t *ws1, const wchar_t *ws2);


DESCRIPTION
       The  wcscmp()  function  shall  compare the wide-character string pointed to by ws1 to the wide-character
       string pointed to by ws2.

       The sign of a non-zero return value shall be determined by the sign of the difference between the  values
       of the first pair of wide-character codes that differ in the objects being compared.


RETURN VALUE
       Upon  completion,  wcscmp()  shall return an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, if the wide-
       character string pointed to by ws1 is greater than, equal to, or  less  than  the  wide-character  string
       pointed to by ws2, respectively.
