Compare Two Strings

String comparisons are performed in the same manor as number comparisons. As an example, we will create two strings, and perform an action based on their contents:

String1 = "I am String1";

String2 = "I am String2";

if String1 == String2 then

   --the two strings are equal

else

   --the two strings are not equal

   if String1 > String2 then

       --String1 is alphabetically larger than String2

   elseif String1 < String2 then

       --String1 is alphabetically smaller than String2

   end

end

Note: if you want to compare the lengths of two strings, you must use the String.Length action:

if String.Length(String1) == String.Length(String2) then

   --the two strings are the same length!!

end

Tip: To perform a non-case-sensitive comparison on two strings, use a String.CompareNoCase action.
