Hello All,

Is there any difference between memcmp()/memcpy() and the
bcmp()/bcopy() version of functions? from man page i can only get that
both are same.

The difference is that memcmp()/memcpy() are ISO standard but bcmp()/
bcopy() are not.

One is a standard C library function, the other isn't.
