Write the following function in C.
stripos — Find position of first occurrence of a case-
insensitive string
int stripos ( char* haystack, char* needle, int offset )
Returns the numeric position of the first occurrence of
needle in the
haystack string. Note that the needle may be a string of
one or more
characters. If needle is not found, stripos() will return -
1.
The function should not make use of any C library function
calls.
