     The strcspn and strspn functions operate on null-terminated
     strings. The <string> arguments to these functions are expected to
     contain a null character (\0) marking the end of the string. No
     overflow checking is performed when strings are copied or
     appended.
 
     The strcspn function returns the index of the first character in
     <string1> belonging to the set of characters specified by
     <string2>. This value is equivalent to the length of the initial
     substring of <string1>, consisting entirely of characters not
     in <string2>. Terminating null characters are not considered in
     the search. If <string1> begins with a character from <string2>,
     strcspn returns 0.
 
     The strspn function returns the index of the first character in
     <string1> not belonging to the set of characters specified by
     <string2>. This value is equivalent to the length of the initial
     substring of <string1>, consisting entirely of characters from
     <string2>. The null character (\0) terminating <string2> is not
     considered in the matching process. If <string1> begins with a
     character not in <string2>, strspn returns 0.
 
     The _f... forms of these functions are model-independent (large-
     model) forms that use far pointer forms of the string arguments
     and return values. These model-independent functions can be called
     from any point in the program.
 
     Return Value
 
     The return values for these functions are described above.
