strcmpi

Arguments

string_one

a character string or matrix of character strings.

string_two

a character string or matrix of character strings.

res

a matrix of integers.

Description

res = strcmpi(string_one, string_two) returns an integral value indicating the relationship between the strings. The two strings are compared in using the lexicographical order.

The value is 0 if string_one is equal to string_two (case independently), 1 if string_one is greater than string_two and -1 else.

Examples

TXT1 = ['scilab','SciLab';'Strcmp','STRcmp'];
TXT2 = ['ScIlAb','sciLab';'sTrCmP','StrCMP'];
strcmpi(TXT1,TXT2)
strcmpi(TXT1,'scilab')
