Parameters
| dest | - | pointer to the null-terminated byte string to be analyzed |
| src | - | pointer to the null-terminated byte string that contains the characters to search for |

The length of the maximum initial segment that contains only characters from byte string pointed to by src
Example
Run this code
#include <cstring> #include <string> #include <iostream> const char *low_alpha = "qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm"; int main() { std::string s = "abcde312$#@"; std::size_t spnsz = std::strspn(s.c_str(), low_alpha); std::cout << "After skipping initial lowercase letters from '" << s << "'\nThe remainder is '" << s.substr(spnsz) << "'\n"; }
