NAME
strncat - concatenate a string with part of another
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
char *strncat(char *restrict s1, const char *restrict
s2, size_t n);
DESCRIPTION
The strncat() function shall append not more than n bytes
(a null byte and bytes that follow it are not appended)
from the array pointed to by s2 to the end of the string pointed
to by s1. The initial byte of s2 overwrites
the null byte at the end of s1. A terminating null byte is always
appended to the result. If copying takes place between
objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined.
RETURN VALUE
The strncat() function shall return s1; no return value
shall be reserved to indicate an error.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
