comparing two equal strings

Hello everyone. How do i return false when comparing two equal strings? i have two strings x = 'MIH06' and y= 'MIH06'. I want strcmp(x,y) to return false when compared . (I don't think strcmp does the job. Please suggest). Thanks.

~strcmp( str1, str2 )

strcmp compares the two strings for equality. In your case the two strings are equal so you can't expect the function itself to return false so just negate its returned value.
