Copies n characters from ct to s and returns s. s may be corrupted if objects overlap.
void* memmove(void* s, const void* ct, size_t n);
Copies n characters from ct to s and returns s. s will not be corrupted if objects overlap.
int memcmp(const void* cs, const void* ct, size_t n);
Compares at most (the first) n characters of cs and ct, returning negative value if cs<ct, zero if cs==ct, positive value if cs>ct.
void* memchr(const void* cs, int c, size_t n);
Returns pointer to first occurrence of c in first n characters of cs, or NULL if not found.
void* memset(void* s, int c, size_t n);
Replaces each of the first n characters of s by c and returns s.

<time.h>


CLOCKS_PER_SEC
The number of clock_t units per second.
NULL
Null pointer constant.
clock_t
An arithmetic type elapsed processor representing time.
time_t
An arithmetic type representing calendar time.
struct tm
Represents the components of calendar time:
int tm_sec;
seconds after the minute
int tm_min;
minutes after the hour
int tm_hour;
hours since midnight
int tm_mday;
day of the month
int tm_mon;
months since January
int tm_year;
years since 1900
int tm_wday;
days since Sunday
int tm_yday;
days since January 1
int tm_isdst;
Daylight Saving Time flag : is positive if DST is in effect, zero if not in effect, negative if information not known.
Implementations may change field order and include additional fields.
clock_t clock(void);
Returns elapsed processor time used by program or -1 if not available.
time_t time(time_t* tp);
Returns current calendar time or -1 if not available. If tp is non-NULL, return value is also assigned to *tp.
double difftime(time_t time2, time_t time1);
Returns the difference in seconds between time2 and time1.
time_t mktime(struct tm* tp);
If necessary, adjusts fields of *tp to fall withing normal ranges. Returns the corresponding calendar time, or -1 if it cannot be represented.
char* asctime(const struct tm* tp);
Returns the given time as a string of the form:
Sun Jan 3 13:08:42 1988\n\0
char* ctime(const time_t* tp);
Returns string equivalent to calendar time tp converted to local time. Equivalent to:
asctime(localtime(tp))
struct tm* gmtime(const time_t* tp);
Returns calendar time *tp converted to Coordinated Universal Time, or NULL if not available.
struct tm* localtime(const time_t* tp);
Returns calendar time *tp converted into local time.
size_t strftime(char* s, size_t smax, const char* fmt, const struct tm* tp);
Formats *tp into s according to fmt. Places no more than smax characters into s, and returns number of characters produced (excluding terminating NUL), or 0 if greater than smax. Formatting conversions (%c) are:
A
name of weekday
a
abbreviated name of weekday
B
name of month
b
abbreviated name of month
c
local date and time representation
d
day of month [01-31]
H
hour (24-hour clock) [00-23]
I
hour (12-hour clock) [01-12]
j
day of year [001-366]
M
minute [00-59]
m
month [01-12]
p
local equivalent of "AM" or "PM"
S
second [00-61]
U
week number of year (Sunday as 1st day of week) [00-53]
W
week number of year (Monday as 1st day of week) [00-53]
w
weekday (Sunday as 0) [0-6]
X
local time representation
x
local date representation
Y
year with century
y
year without century [00-99]
Z
name (if any) of time zone
%
%
Local time may differ from calendar time because of time zone.
