/*******************************************************************************
*
* memcmp - compare two blocks of memory (ANSI)
*
* This routine compares successive elements from two arrays of `unsigned char',
* beginning at the addresses <s1> and <s2> (both of size <n>), until it finds
* elements that are not equal.
*
* INCLUDE FILES: string.h
*
* RETURNS:
* If all elements are equal, zero.  If elements differ and the differing
* element from <s1> is greater than the element from <s2>, the routine
* returns a positive number; otherwise, it returns a negative number.
