strcoll

Locale based string comparison

Description

int strcoll(string $string1, string $string2)

Note that this comparison is case sensitive, and unlike strcmp this function is not binary safe.

strcoll uses the current locale for doing the comparisons. If the current locale is C or POSIX, this function is equivalent to strcmp.

Parameters

string1

The first string.

string2

The second string.

Return Values

Returns < 0 if string1 is less than string2; > 0 if string1 is greater than string2, and 0 if they are equal.
