I would be a fan of adding a `string.compare(other, {ignoreCase = false,
unicode = false})` that purely works by character code/code point and is
required to return 1, 0, or -1. That would be easier to spec, and is more
generally useful when you're working with strings for computers, not people.But that's largely independent of this proposal. ----- Isiah Meadows [email protected] www.isiahmeadows.com On Wed, Jun 27, 2018 at 11:37 AM, Robert Wozniak <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > > > I think you’re right, It could be simpler to do it like that. > > > > I have checked “localeCompare”, it does compare case sensitive strings but > it doesn’t compare strings in an array and to do it, you will have to > execute the method as many times as strings in an array.
