.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR libsimple_memcaseeqlen ()
function scans the number of bytes the byte array
.IR a ,
with size
.IR n ,
have in common the byte array
.IR b ,
with size
.IR m ,
at their beginnings.
.PP
The comparison is case-insensitive.
.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR libsimple_memcaseeqlen ()
function returns the number of bytes
.I a
and
.I b
have in common at their beginnings.
.SH ERRORS
The
.BR libsimple_memcaseeqlen ()
function cannot fail.
