use the Compare() method to compare strings
using System;
class MainClass {
public static void Main() {
int result;
result = String.Compare("bbc", "abc");
Console.WriteLine("String.Compare(\"bbc\", \"abc\") = " + result);
result = String.Compare("abc", "bbc");
Console.WriteLine("String.Compare(\"abc\", \"bbc\") = " + result);
result = String.Compare("bbc", "bbc");
Console.WriteLine("String.Compare(\"bbc\", \"bbc\") = " + result);
result = String.Compare("bbc", "BBC", true);
Console.WriteLine("String.Compare(\"bbc\", \"BBC\", true) = " + result);
result = String.Compare("bbc", "BBC", false);
Console.WriteLine("String.Compare(\"bbc\", \"BBC\", false) = " + result);
result = String.Compare("Hello World", 6, "Goodbye World", 8, 5);
Console.WriteLine("String.Compare(\"Hello World\", 6, " + "\"Goodbye World\", 8, 5) = " + result);
