Implements
IEquatable<T>::Equals(T)This method performs an ordinal (case-sensitive and culture-insensitive) comparison.
The following example demonstrates the Equals method.It compares the title-cased word "File" with an equivalent word, its lowercase equivalent, its uppercase equivalent, and a word that contains LATIN SMALL LETTER DOTLESS I (U+0131) instead of LATIN SMALL LETTER I (U+0069). Because the Equals(String^) method performs an ordinal comparison, only the comparison with an identical word returns true.
