COMMENT * SIMULA specification;
OPTIONS(/E:QUICK,upcompare);
BOOLEAN PROCEDURE upcompare(master,test);
TEXT master,test;

COMMENT Upcompare returns TRUE if the contents
of TEST is equal to the next TEST.Length characters of MASTER,
counted from current MASTER.Pos.
The MASTER characters will be converted to upper case
before comparison (without changing the MASTER text).
Note that the TEST text will NOT be converted.
Thus

MASTER		TEST		UPCOMPARE

BEGIN		BEG		TRUE
BEGIN		beg		FALSE
begin		BEG		TRUE
begin		beg		FALSE
xxxxx		BEG		FALSE

assuming that MASTER.Pos = 1.
If TEST == NOTEXT the result will always be TRUE.
;
! IF master.Pos + test.Length <= master.Length + 1 THEN
! BEGIN   CHARACTER cmaster,ctest;
!     INTEGER shift;
!	shift:= Rank('a') - Rank('A');
!	WHILE master.More AND test.More AND cmaster = ctest DO
!	BEGIN
!	    cmaster:= master.Getchar;
!	    ctest:= test.Getchar;
!	    IF (IF cmaster > 'Z' THEN Letter(cmaster) ELSE FALSE) THEN
!	    cmaster:= Char(Rank(cmaster) - shift);
!	END loop;
!	out: upcompare:= cmaster = ctest;
! END of upcompare;
