Comparing Strings In node js "UTF-16"

Question

I am new to Node.js. And need a npm package or some module to compare to string in UTF-16 format.

In C# I have the following function:

public int Compare(string x, string y)
{
    var myComparer = CompareInfo.GetCompareInfo("en-US");
    return myComparer.Compare(x, y, CompareOptions.Ordinal);
}

I want the same behavior in this c# code to be written in Node.js

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Check out String.prototype.localeCompare(compareString[, locales[, options]]).

Your equivalent might be x.localeCompare(y, "en-US").
