Like keyword to comparison in VB.NET
This article is about the Like keyword functionality in Vb.NET
In this article I explain the Like keyword functionality in VB.NET. Like keyword is used to compare the two values whether both of the values entered by user at run time or already specify in the program. I take a example to demonstrate the working below example explain you to how you can set a pattern and than enter a value and compare both of them on console screen.
Examples
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim UserInput As String
Dim Pattern As String
Dim Match As String
System.Console.Write("Please Enter A Pattern:")
UserInput = System.Console.ReadLine()
Pattern = UserInput
System.Console.Write("Please Enter A value To Compare With Pattern:")
UserInput = System.Console.ReadLine()
Match = UserInput
If Match Like Pattern Then
System.Console.WriteLine(Match & " Matched with " & Pattern)
Else
System.Console.WriteLine(Match & " did not Match with " & Pattern)
End If
Console.ReadLine()
End Sub
End Module
