Say I have 2 strings,
String s1 = "AbBaCca";
String s2 = "bac";
I want to preform a check returning that s2 is contained within s1. I can do this with:
return s1.contains(s2);
I am pretty sure that contains() is case sensitive, however I can't determine this for sure from reading the documentation. If it is then I suppose my best method would be something like:
return s1.toLowerCase().contains(s2.toLowerCase());
All this aside, does anyone know of another (possibly better) way to accomplish this without caring about case-sensitivity?
