bcmp, bcopy, bzero, memccpy, memchr, memcmp, memcpy, memmove, memset -- byte string operations
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
int
bcmp(const void *b1, const void *b2, size_t len);
void
bcopy(const void *src, void *dst, size_t len);
void
bzero(void *b, size_t len);
void *
memchr(const void *b, int c, size_t len);
int
memcmp(const void *b1, const void *b2, size_t len);
void *
memccpy(void *dst, const void *src, int c, size_t len);
void *
memcpy(void *dst, const void *src, size_t len);
void *
memmove(void *dst, const void *src, size_t len);
void *
memset(void *b, int c, size_t len);
DESCRIPTION
These functions operate on variable length strings of bytes. They do not check for terminating null bytes as the routines listed in
string(3) do.
See the specific manual pages for more information.

As bash cannot cope with a byte value of zero inside a variable then this is a workaround.
This code is a DEMO to show how to create a _string_variable_ containing all of the values of 1 to 255 as single characters and 0, (zero), as a two byte character set of \0.
