That seems odd since PHP has almost every single low-level C string
function available to it. You can strspn and strncmp to your heart's
content in PHP. Pretty much the only ones missing are strcat and strcpy
but, surely, they can't be why you prefer C.

A PHP translation of C string handling would inevitably be simpler since
there would be no need manage the storage. That's the biggest advantage
in my opinion, even if never used any of PHP's more complex string
manipulation.
