strcspn

Defined in header <string.h>
size_t strcspn( const char *dest, const char *src );
+

Returns the length of the maximum initial segment of the null-terminated byte string pointed to by dest, that consists of only the characters not found in the null-terminated byte string pointed to by src.

+

The behavior is undefined if either dest or src is not a pointer to a null-terminated byte string.

+

Parameters

+ + +
dest - pointer to the null-terminated byte string to be analyzed
src - pointer to the null-terminated byte string that contains the characters to search for

Return value

The length of the maximum initial segment that contains only characters not found in the null-terminated byte string pointed to by src

+

Notes

The function name stands for "complementary span" because the function searches for characters not found in src, that is the complement of src.

+

Example

#include <string.h>
+#include <stdio.h>
+ 
+int main(void)
+{
+    const char *string = "abcde312$#@";
+    const char *invalid = "*$#";
+ 
+    size_t valid_len = strcspn(string, invalid);
+    if(valid_len != strlen(string))
+       printf("'%s' contains invalid chars starting at position %zu\n",
+               string, valid_len);
+}

Output:

+
'abcde312$#@' contains invalid chars starting at position 8
