* memcmp:: Compare two memory areas
* memcpy:: Copy memory regions
* memmem:: Find memory segment
* memmove:: Move possibly overlapping memory
* mempcpy:: Copy memory regions and locate end
* memset:: Set an area of memory
* rindex:: Reverse search for character in string
* stpcpy:: Copy string returning a pointer to its end
* stpncpy:: Counted copy string returning a pointer to its end
* strcasecmp:: Compare strings ignoring case
* strcasestr:: Find string segment ignoring case
* strcat:: Concatenate strings
