This short covers the MATLAB built-in function STRCMP() used for comparing strings.

STRCMP() compares the whole string and is case sensitive.

STRCMPI() is the similar function that is not case sensitive, check out this video on it:    • MATLAB: strcmpi (compare strings)  

STRNCMP() is a similar function that you can specify how much of the strings you want to compare, check out this video on it:    • MATLAB: strncmp (compare part of strings)  

STRNCMPI() is a similar function that is not case sensitive and you can specify how much of the strings you want to compare, check out this video on it:    • MATLAB: strncmpi (compare part of strings)  

CONTAINS() is a string function that you can use to locate a string within strings, check out this video on it:    • MATLAB: contains (look for a string within...  

STRFIND() is a string function that you can use to locate a string within strings, check out this video on it:    • MATLAB: strfind (look for a string within ...  

For a more detailed discussion around the strfind and contains functions, check out this video:    • MATLAB: String Functions - contains/strfin...
