I did not understand those to be the names of variable, I understood those to be the contents of the variables.

Well, it's about time that Googie chimes in again.

It is.
The problem, Craig, with numToChar, is that it assumes that all the alphabetic characters are Latinate е това е един проблем с други езици ( and that's a problem with other languages).

The caseSensitivity property should apply to operations performed on all strings, not limited to field contents.
I'm not at a computer to verify, but I'm pretty certain I've used it on variables before.

I have had no luck with it working on variable.
Although my reading of the Dictionary does not seem to exclude variables:

We do need to know the reason for the comparison. If the goal is just to use the two as identical you shouldn't need to do anything because LC will treat them the same automatically.

Richmond.
Hardly an issue. Set the "useUnicode" property, and upgrade to "numToCodepoint" My only point was to offer this method as a possible solution.

Indeed: my second stack, which I posted before you, leveraged numToCodePoint.Hardly an issue.

Try this:
Code: Select all
put "Hello" into s1; put "hello" into s2; set the caseSensitive to true; put (s1 is s2)Re: Match varialbes with case sensitivity.

We are currently presuming, until Googie chimes in again, that the TS want to differ two VARIABLE names, not their content!
So this will of course return FALSE:
Code: Select all
put "Hello" into sss1; put "hello" into SSS2; set the caseSensitive to true; put (sss1 = SSS2)Re: Match varialbes with case sensitivity.

Does the caseSensitive not work with array keys?Klaus wrote: Sat Feb 01, 2025 10:16 am We are currently presuming, until Googie chimes in again, that the TS want to differ two VARIABLE names, not their content!

Why should we presume that?We are currently presuming, until Googie chimes in again, that the TS want to differ two VARIABLE names, not their content!
The OP did NOT write "I'm wondering how to match 2 variables' names with case sensitivity.
I'm wondering how to match 2 variables with case sensitivity. For example, AlPhA123 will currently match Alpha123. How do I match these variables with Case Sensitivity?

OK, OK, I (EYE) presumed that.
