Case Sensitive Equals Block

Coder24

This is a pretty straight-forward suggestion. Scratch is definitely missing case sensitive functionality even though it is still possible with a lot of complicated code. This would really make things like encoders and decoders a lot more simple and comprehensive.

Thanks,

I'm not going to support, but I also can't say no support…

U^ｪ^U::motion//This is Blocky. He lives in my signature. He is a trained attack block. He protects my siggy from kumquats.

Support; how about:

<[Aa] is exactly [Aa] :: operators>

Then semi-support.

Is this a joke? Because he literally states it would make Cloud Listing easier!?

Total support for the exactly operator

Think before you act.
Actions speek louder than words.

Support for this, alongside the current

<[] = []>

block.

Support for updating the equals block or add the exactly block.

This. What happens with numbers, though?

Hm. I think that exact, number-for-number copies should be true, but stuff like <01 is exactly 1> would be false.

We already have an “equals” block, so adding a new one would if useless. I also don't understand, are you asking for something like this?

<caps lock on?::sensing>

I have no idea what to put here

That's not at all what we're suggesting. Here, I'll explain. You know how the current equals block isn't case sensitive? For example…

<[A] = [a]> //This reports as true, even though the letters are different cases.

<[Goodbye] = [goodBye]>//This also reports as true.

We're suggesting a block like the equals block, except it would be case sensitive-

<[A] is exactly [a]::operators>//Would report as false because the case doesn't match.

<[Goodbye] is exactly [goodBye]::operators>//Would also report as false.

<[Goodbye] is exactly [Goodbye]::operators>//Would report as true because the case matches.

Support to add a new block, no support to update the existing one because it would break existing projects.

If you can read this, my signature cubeupload has been eaten by an evil kumquat!

or you just used Inspect Element, you hacker

Semi-support. It could be workarounded, like you said, but can also help. How about next to each string, a switch for case sensitive?

Actually there is, but it's kinda complicated. Try searching for it.

Support!

~~If life gives you kumquats, lock your signature up, bury it in the ground and hope it's safe~~
hello child. i am an elf

Support!

I ran into this while building a game which will help my students learn to type passwords correctly…

Pezd

I support the

<[] is exactely []:: operators>

block. Although I definitely do not support the updating of the

<[] = []>

block. Mabye a block like this could work.

<letter () of [] is [ v]:: operators>

And the pulldown contains ‘uppercase’ and ‘lowercase.’

Check out my four newest projects!

miniepicness

I support the exactly, nowhere near supporting updating the equals though
