Re: [Dev-C++] Char datatype

Yes, it is definitely case sensitive. If you have a lot of options to check and a single variable that contains the current one, you could always use the function tolower which will make life a bit easier for you in that case. You just convert it to a lowercase before you start checking and then you don't need to bother about it.

  Subject: [Dev-C++] Char datatype


  hello all,
  i would like to know if the CHAR datatype is case-sensitive??
  i.e. should i write code like this to recognise the character or not

  e.g. 
  char = category;
  if (category == 'M') or (category == 'm')

  cheers..
