C标准库--memset函数

1、Synopsis

 #include <string.h>
 void *memset(void *s, int c, size_t n);

2、Description

 The memset function copies the value of c (converted to unsigned char) into each of the first n characters of the object pointed to by s.

3、Returns

 The memset function returns the value of s.

4、Function

void *(memset)(void *s, int c, size_t n)
{
	const unsigned char uc = c;
	unsigned char *su;

	for (su = s; 0 < n; --n)
		*su = uc;
	return (s);
}

 I choose unsigned char as the working type within memset in the off chance that some implementation might generate an overflow storing certain int values in the other character types.
