If every problem could be solved with a stdlib call, there'd only have to be one programmer in the world...
You're forgetting the millions of stdlib programmers :-)

But only because 10,000 different stdlib calls are needed! (I should shush now, I don't want to give away the Programmer's Secret. Even if it IS very similar to the Lawyers Secret)... Being serious, though, if your code requires a serious amount of security, you're better off writing your own parsing. It does mean the poor guy taking over has to use this "stdlib", but that's more work for programmers. Oh no, I said it...! AaaarrrgghhCARRIER LOST
