The #ifeq function selects one of two alternatives based on whether two test strings are equal to each other. {{#ifeq: string 1 | string 2 | value if equal | value if not equal}} If both strings are valid numerical values, they are compared as numbers, rather than as literal strings: {{#ifeq: 01 | 1 | equal | not equal }} → equal

In JavaScript, PHP, VBScript and a few other dynamically typed languages, the standard equality operator follows so-called loose typing, that is it evaluates to true even if two values are not equal and are of incompatible types, but can be coerced to each other by some set of language-specific rules, making the number 4 compare equal to the ...
Adding transpositions adds significant complexity. The difference between the two algorithms consists in that the optimal string alignment algorithm computes the number of edit operations needed to make the strings equal under the condition that no substring is edited more than once, whereas the second one presents no such restriction.
It is at least the absolute value of the difference of the sizes of the two strings. It is at most the length of the longer string. It is zero if and only if the strings are equal. If the strings have the same size, the Hamming distance is an upper bound on the Levenshtein distance. The Hamming distance is the number of positions at which the ...
The user can search for elements in an associative array, and delete elements from the array. The following shows how multi-dimensional associative arrays can be simulated in standard AWK using concatenation and the built-in string-separator variable SUBSEP:
String interning speeds up string comparisons, which are sometimes a performance bottleneck in applications (such as compilers and dynamic programming language runtimes) that rely heavily on associative arrays with string keys to look up the attributes and methods of an object. Without interning, comparing two distinct strings may involve ...
A string in JavaScript is a sequence of characters. In JavaScript, strings can be created directly (as literals) by placing the series of characters between double (") or single (') quotes. Such strings must be written on a single line, but may include escaped newline characters (such as \n).
