STRRCHR(3)                 BSD Programmer's Manual                  STRRCHR(3)

NAME

     strrchr, rindex - locate last occurrence of a character in a string

SYNOPSIS

     #include <string.h>

     char *
     strrchr(const char *s, int c);

     char *
     rindex(const char *s, int c);

DESCRIPTION

     The strrchr() function locates the last occurrence of the character c in
     the string s. The terminating NUL character is considered part of the
     string. If c is '\0', strrchr() locates the terminating '\0'.

     The rindex() function is an old synonym for strrchr().

RETURN VALUES

     The strrchr() function returns a pointer to the located character or NULL
     if the character does not appear in the string.

EXAMPLES

     After the following call to strrchr(), p will point to the string "obar":

           char *p;
           char *s = "foobar";

           p = strrchr(s, 'o');

STANDARDS

     The strrchr() function conforms to ANSI X3.159-1989 ("ANSI C89").

     The rindex() function is deprecated and shouldn't be used in new code.
