MEMCPY(3) BSD Library Functions Manual MEMCPY(3)NAMEmemcpy — copy byte string
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>

The memcpy() function conforms to ANSI X3.159-1989 (“ANSI C89”).
BUGS
In this implementation memcpy() is implemented using bcopy(3), and there‐
fore the strings may overlap. On other systems, copying overlapping
strings may produce surprises. A simpler solution is to not use
memcpy().
