(const

The
strspn
()
function spans the initial part of the null-terminated string
s as long as the characters from
s occur in the null-terminated string
charset. In other words, it computes the string array
index of the first character of s which is not in
charset, else the index of the first null
character.
The
strcspn
()
function spans the initial part of the null-terminated string
s as long as the characters from
s
do not occur
in the null-terminated string charset (it spans the
complement
of charset). In other words, it computes the string
array index of the first character of s which is also
in charset, else the index of the first null
character.
The strspn
() and
strcspn
() functions return the number of characters
spanned.
