Case-insensitive string comparison

Which one is more appropriate? The Not keyword or <>?

Local $sString = ''
Local Const $fNotKeyword = Not ($sString = '') ; Not keyword.
ConsoleWrite($fNotKeyword & @CRLF)

Local Const $fNotOperator = ($sString <> '') ; <> operators.
ConsoleWrite($fNotOperator & @CRLF)

Define appropriate.

They both give the same result so I would say it comes down to personal preference.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

Yes, what brought this up? And what does "case insensitive" have to do with this?

Did some timer tests

No such specific difference

The results were distinct

Local $sString = ''
Local $fNotKeyword, $fNotOperator

Local $iTimer

$iTimer = TimerInit()
For $i = 0 To 10 ^ 4
$fNotOperator = ($sString <> '') ; <> operators.
Next
ConsoleWrite('Not Operator: ' & $fNotOperator & " TimeConsumed: " & TimerDiff($iTimer) & @CR)


$iTimer = TimerInit()
For $i = 0 To 10 ^ 4
$fNotKeyword = Not ($sString = '') ; Not keyword.
Next
ConsoleWrite('Not Keyword: ' & $fNotKeyword & " TimeConsumed: " & TimerDiff($iTimer) & @CR)

Exit

Maybe I guess Not keyword is required to make a case-sensitive comparison

Read the help file.

<> Tests if two values are not equal. Case insensitive when used with strings. To do a case sensitive not equal comparison use Not ("string1" == "string2")

Which would mean $sString_1 = $sString_2 is exactly the same <>. I was also wondering, because about 18 months ago I did some tests (just like PhoenixXL) and concluded Not was slower when evaluating an exp-ression, but find Not fits well for evaluating string values.

I use <>, I think it goes back to when I used Not incorrectly and had problems.

You must have forgot to encase the exp-ression in parenthesis. It's happened to me in the past too.

Edit: Maybe this should be in Chat?

Perhaps, and I have seen it fail without parenthesis, but not always. <> never seems to fail.

Slightly related...I'm starting to adopt this approach below.

#include <Constants.au3>

; Boolean check. Use 'Not' if checking a variable that contains a boolean datatype.
Local Const $fBool = SomeFunc() ; SomeFunc returns False.
If Not $fBool Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, 'IsBool: ' & IsBool($fBool), '"Not" used for bool comparison.')

; If a function returns 0 then exclusively check for this value instead of using Not.
If FileExists('SomeFile.exe') = 0 Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, '', 'Exclusively check for "on failure" integer value.')

; For everything else that is positive True or greater than (>) 0 (not equal) ...
If FileExists(@ScriptDir) Then
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, '', 'FileExists returns 1 on success.')
EndIf

Func SomeFunc()
    Return False
EndFunc   ;==>SomeFunc

Thanks. People might ask why, so I will explain in one word. Readability.

By using the Not keyword (even without the hungarian variable notation) I can tell $fBool is returning a boolean value and not a string or integer value.

Well I could be wrong, so am open to suggestion.
