How to make C# Switch Statement use IgnoreCase

Question

If I have a switch-case statement where the object in the switch is string, is it possible to do an ignoreCase compare?

I have for instance:

string s =         


        

Answer 1

A simpler approach is just lowercasing your string before it goes into the switch statement, and have the cases lower.

Actually, upper is a bit better from a pure extreme nanosecond performance standpoint, but less natural to look at.

E.g.:

string s = "house"; 
switch (s.ToLower()) { 
  case "house": 
    s = "window"; 
    break;
}
