Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

<h3>Synopsis</h3>
#include &lt;string.h&gt;<br>
<br>
void *<br>
memmove(void *<em>dest</em>, const void *<em>src</em>, size_t <em>len</em>);

<h3>Description</h3>

The block of memory beginning at <em>src</em>, of length <em>len</em>,
is copied to <em>dest</em>. <em>dest</em> must point to a region large
