Look up strcmp. What is its purpose? What is it supposed to tell you?
And how does it tell you that?
That is, what does the return value *mean*?
Answer that, and you'll see why you get hits on every title (whereas you
ought to be getting no hits whatsoever, because you're searching for
something that can't possibly be there).
Your problem is that you have so many problems all mixed up together,
because you've been learning too fast from an inadequate book and from
comp.lang.c people who are trying to make you go faster rather than slower.
