Switch case (how to use for case insensitive string check)

28 views (last 30 days)
This might be a dumb question, but i did not seem to find an answer.
I´m using switch statement like this,
switch str
case {'power','POWER','Power'.....}
is there any way for me write the string for comparison in the case statement only once, but which also covers all case combinations something like, strcmpi
Thanks in advance. Best Regards, Hss

switch lower(str)
case 'power'
end
Just lower the case of your control variable.

try
str1 = lower(str);
switch str1
case 'power'
