Overview#

Case-insensitive is when treating or interpreting uppercase and lowercase letters as being the same.

Often used in computer science to indicate a comparison or EQUALITY test that does not distinguish between letters that only differ in case.

Example#

A case-sensitive password will not recognize "Password" and "password" as the same, but a case-insensitive comparison would.

Matching Rules that are Case-insensitive#

• CaseIgnoreMatch
• caseIgnoreString
