| Description |
Returns true if the two strings have exactly the same value. It is case sensitive.
Strings are objects in .Net (even though they are not implicitly created). Flavours 1 and 2 of the Equals method are methods of a string object.
Flavours 3 and 4 are static methods of the String class - meaning that you run the method standalone rather than against a string object. In this case, the two strings (or string objects) are passed as parameters.
