C Prototype

mxArray *mlfStrncmp(mxArray *str1, mxArray *str2, mxArray *n);

C Syntax

#include "matlab.h"

mxArray *S, *T, *n;             /* Input argument(s) */
mxArray *k = NULL, *TF = NULL;  /* Return value */

mlfAssign(&k, mlfStrncmp(mxCreateString("str1"),
                         mxCreateString("str2"),n));
mlfAssign(&TF, mlfStrncmp(S,T,n));

MATLAB Syntax

k = strncmp('str1','str2',n)
TF = strncmp(S,T,n)
