NAME asn_cmp - compare two arbitrary size numbers SYNOPSIS int asn_cmp(string a, string b) DESCRIPTION Compare a and b, returning -1 if a is smaller than b, 1 if a is larger than b, or 0 if a is equal to b. Arbitrary size numbers are encoded as strings, most significant byte first. The most significant bit in the first byte, when set, indicates that the number is negative and encoded in two's complement.
