C# strComp Example Syntax | C-Sharp String Method | Source Code

Purpose: – Illustrates the for .




Step 1: Click on C# to Cut-n-paste code into clsstrComp.cs

using System;
public class clsStrComp
{
 
    public void Main()
    {
 
 
        //****************************************************************************************
        // Note: Compare is the c# equivalent for vb.net strComp
        // Example #1: 	StrComp(string1,string2,comparemethod) - returns integer
        // Returns -1, 0, or 1, based on the result of a string comparison. 
        // -1  String1 sorts ahead of String2
        //  0  String1 is equal to String2
        //  1  String1 sorts after String2
        // comparemethod - Optional. Specifies the type of string comparison. If Compare is omitted, 
        // the Option Compare setting determines the compare method 
        //****************************************************************************************
 
        Console.WriteLine("Example #1: 	StrComp(string1,string2,comparemethod) ");
 
        string strString1 = "XYZ";
        string strString2 = "xyz";
 
        // Return Uppercase
        Console.WriteLine(string.Compare(strString1, strString2, true).ToString()); //Returns 0
        Console.WriteLine(string.Compare(strString1, strString2, false).ToString()); //Returns 1
        strString2 = "ABC";
        Console.WriteLine(string.Compare(strString1, strString2, false).ToString()); //Returns 1
 
        //write blank line to make output easier to read
        Console.WriteLine();
 
 
 
        //Prevent console from closing before you press enter
        Console.ReadLine();
 
    }
 
 
}

Step 2: Click on C# to Cut-n-paste code into Program.cs

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
 
namestrComp CSharp_Syntax
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
 
 
            clsstrComp mystrComp = new clsstrComp();
            mystrComp.Main();
 
        }
    }
}

Prerequistes:

  1. Install C# (Express or Standard Edition)
  2. Install SQL Server Express
  3. Download Northwind and pubs Database
  4. Attach Northwind Database to Databases in Sql Express
  5. Attach pubs Database to Databases in Sql Express

Notes:

  • Console Application is used to simplify things, but Windows Forms or Web Forms could also be used
  • You can build a library of syntax examples by using same project over and over and just commenting out what you do not want to execute in Program.cs
