+.SH NAME
+strrchr
+\(em string scanning operation
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+#include <string.h>
+.P
+char *strrchr(const char *\fIs\fP, int \fIc\fP);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
+ISO\ C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the
+ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard.
+.P
+The
+\fIstrrchr\fR()
+function shall locate the last occurrence of
+.IR c
+(converted to a
+.BR char )
+in the string pointed to by
+.IR s .
+The terminating NUL character is considered to be part of the string.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+Upon successful completion,
+\fIstrrchr\fR()
+shall return a pointer to the byte or a null pointer if
+.IR c
+does not occur in the string.
+.SH ERRORS
+No errors are defined.
+.LP
+.IR "The following sections are informative."
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.SS "Finding the Base Name of a File"
+.P
+The following example uses
+\fIstrrchr\fR()
+to get a pointer to the base name of a file. The
+\fIstrrchr\fR()
+function searches backwards through the name of the file to find the
+last
+.BR '/'
+character in
+.IR name .
+This pointer (plus one) will point to the base name of the file.
