@end example













The following two statements illustrate that string comparisons are













case insensitive unless one of the operands is a binary string:

























@example













mysql> select 'abc' LIKE 'ABC';













        -> 1













mysql> SELECT 'abc' LIKE BINARY 'ABC';













        -> 0













@end example



























@code{LIKE} is allowed on numeric expressions! (This is a @strong{MySQL}















extension to the ANSI SQL @code{LIKE}.)
