mathjs/lib/function/relational/compareText.js

Math.js is an extensive math library for JavaScript and Node.js. It features a flexible expression parser with support for symbolic computation, comes with a large set of built-in functions and constants, and offers an integrated solution to work with dif

  /**
   * Compare two strings lexically. Comparison is case sensitive.
   * Returns 1 when x > y, -1 when x < y, and 0 when x == y.
   *
   * For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.
   *
   * Syntax:
   *
   *    math.compareText(x, y)
   *
   * Examples:
   *
   *    math.compareText('B', 'A')     // returns 1
   *    math.compareText('2', '10')    // returns 1
   *    math.compare('2', '10')        // returns -1
   *    math.compareNatural('2', '10') // returns -1
   *
   *    math.compareText('B', ['A', 'B', 'C']) // returns [1, 0, -1]
   *
   * See also:
   *
   *    equal, equalText, compare, compareNatural
   *
   * @param  {string | Array | DenseMatrix} x First string to compare
   * @param  {string | Array | DenseMatrix} y Second string to compare
   * @return {number | Array | DenseMatrix} Returns the result of the comparison:
   *                                        1 when x > y, -1 when x < y, and 0 when x == y.
