DESCRIPTION
     The memchr() function locates the first occurrence of c (converted to an
     unsigned char) in string b.

     The memrchr() function behaves like memchr(), except that it locates the
     last occurrence of c in string b.

RETURN VALUES
     The memchr() and memrchr() functions return a pointer to the byte
     located, or NULL if no such byte exists within len bytes.
