The ANS Forth standard has the word COMPARE to lexically compare two strings, with the same behavior as the C standard library strcmp() function. |
|||
<lang Forth>: str-eq ( str len str len -- ? ) compare 0= ; |
|||
: str-neq ( str len str len -- ? ) compare 0<> ; |
|||
: str-lt ( str len str len -- ? ) compare 0< ; |
|||
: str-gt ( str len str len -- ? ) compare 0> ; |
|||
: str-le ( str len str len -- ? ) compare 0<= ; |
|||
: str-ge ( str len str len -- ? ) compare 0>= ;</lang> |
|||
Although many Forths allow case-insensitive lookup of ASCII dictionary names for function and variable names (FIND, SEARCH-WORDLIST), this capability is not exposed for other uses in a standard way. |
