StrCmp(
     string:string1,
     string:string2,
     [int:length],
     [string:flags]
)
→ int

Arguments

string1

First string to compare.

string2

Second string to compare.

length

Optional. Number of characters to compare. By default the full lengths of the strings will be compared; shorter strings will be considered to be less than longer strings.

flags

Optional. The optional flags are:
cConsider case when performing the comparison (case-sensitive)

Return value

Returns 0 if the strings are the same, < 0 if string1 is less than string2, and > 0 if string1 is greater than string2.

Description

Compares two strings. While you can compare strings using the ==, < and > operators, using the StrCmp function lets you make the comparison case sensitive if desired. You can also choose the number of characters of each string to compare.

Example: 

if (StrCmp(name, "backup-", 7) == 0) { ... } // name begins with "backup-"
