string comparison

[daileyps]

How do I compare strings to determine sequence? IE. if I have String a = "ABC"; and String b = "DEF"; I want to compare a to b and get a result which tells me which should come first.

[weaver]

use the following:

String a = "ABC", b = "DEF";

if (a.compare(b) < 0)
// a comes before b
else
// b comes before a
