+.SH NAME
+wcsncmp
+\(em compare part of two wide-character strings
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+#include <wchar.h>
+.P
+int wcsncmp(const wchar_t *\fIws1\fP, const wchar_t *\fIws2\fP, size_t \fIn\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
+\fIwcsncmp\fR()
+function shall compare not more than
+.IR n
+wide-character codes (wide-character codes that follow a null
+wide-character code are not compared) from the array pointed to by
+.IR ws1
+to the array pointed to by
+.IR ws2 .
+.P
+The sign of a non-zero return value shall be determined by the sign of
+the difference between the values of the first pair of wide-character
+codes that differ in the objects being compared.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+Upon successful completion,
+\fIwcsncmp\fR()
+shall return an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, if the
+possibly null-terminated array pointed to by
+.IR ws1
+is greater than, equal to, or less than the possibly null-terminated
+array pointed to by
+.IR ws2 ,
+respectively.
+.SH ERRORS
+No errors are defined.
