#include <string.h>

void *memcpy(void *dest, 

Parameters for this facility are:

dest	void *	The destination memory
source	const void *	The source to copy
n	size_t	The maximum length to copy

The memcpy() function copies the first n characters from the item pointed to by source to the item pointed to by dest. The behavior of memcpy() is undefined if the areas pointed to by dest and source overlap. The memmove() function reliably copies overlapping memory blocks.

memcpy() returns the value of dest.
