Or maybe to specify string equivalence.

string( "6. “) is not equal to string( "6.”)
where the function string() would tell LC not to try to convert the string into
a number, but simply leave it as a literal string for comparison purposes.
Of course, another way to prevent LC from converting a textual number into an
actual number is to append a string to the textual number:
whereas "6. “ = "6.” returns TRUE
"6. “ & “a” = "6.” & “a” returns FALSE.
