strrchr() -- String Function (libc)

Search for rightmost occurrence of a character in a string
#include <string.h>
char *strrchr(string, character)
char *string; int character;

strrchr() looks for the  last, or rightmost, occurrence of character within
string.  character is  declared to  be an  int, but  is handled  within the
function as a char. Another way to describe this function is to say that it
performs a reverse search for a character in a string.  It is equivalent to
the COHERENT function rindex().

strrchr() returns  a pointer to  the rightmost occurrence  of character, or
NULL if character could not be found within string.
