//! VB6 `StrComp` Function
//!
//! The `StrComp` function compares two strings and returns a value indicating their relationship.
//!
//! ## Syntax
//! ```vb6
//! StrComp(string1, string2[, compare])
//! ```
//!
//! ## Parameters
//! - `string1`: Required. Any valid string expression.
//! - `string2`: Required. Any valid string expression.
//! - `compare`: Optional. Specifies the type of string comparison. Can be one of the following constants:
//!   - `vbBinaryCompare` (0): Performs a binary comparison (case-sensitive, based on character codes)
//!   - `vbTextCompare` (1): Performs a textual comparison (case-insensitive)
//!   - `vbDatabaseCompare` (2): Performs a comparison based on database information (Microsoft Access only)
//!
//! ## Returns
//! Returns an `Integer` indicating the result of the comparison:
//! - `-1` if `string1` is less than `string2`
//! - `0` if `string1` equals `string2`
//! - `1` if `string1` is greater than `string2`
//! - `Null` if either `string1` or `string2` is `Null`
//!
//! ## Remarks
//! The `StrComp` function provides flexible string comparison with control over case sensitivity:
//!
//! - **Binary comparison (vbBinaryCompare = 0)**: Compares strings based on internal binary representation (character codes). This is case-sensitive and faster. "A" < "a" because uppercase letters have lower ASCII values than lowercase letters.
//! - **Text comparison (vbTextCompare = 1)**: Compares strings in a case-insensitive manner. "A" = "a" in text comparison.
//! - **Default behavior**: If `compare` argument is omitted, the comparison mode is determined by the `Option Compare` statement at the module level. If no `Option Compare` is specified, binary comparison is used.
//! - **Null handling**: If either string is `Null`, the function returns `Null` (not an error).
//! - **Empty strings**: Empty strings ("") are less than any non-empty string.
//! - **Comparison logic**: Uses lexicographic ordering based on character codes (binary) or case-folded characters (text).
//! - **Performance**: Binary comparison is faster than text comparison.
//! - **Unicode support**: VB6 uses Unicode internally, so comparisons work correctly with international characters.
//!
//! ### Option Compare Statement
//! The module-level `Option Compare` statement affects default comparison behavior:
//! ```vb6
//! Option Compare Binary   ' Default: case-sensitive comparisons
//! Option Compare Text     ' Case-insensitive comparisons
//! Option Compare Database ' Database-based comparisons (Access only)
//! ```
//!
//! ### Comparison with Operators
//! - **`StrComp` vs = operator**: The `=` operator returns Boolean (True/False), while `StrComp` returns Integer (-1, 0, 1) providing ordering information.
//! - **`StrComp` vs `InStr`**: `InStr` finds substring position, while `StrComp` compares entire strings.
//! - **`StrComp` vs Like**: `Like` supports pattern matching with wildcards, while `StrComp` is exact comparison.
//!
//! ## Typical Uses
//! 1. **Sorting Algorithms**: Implement custom sorting routines for string arrays
//! 2. **Case-Insensitive Comparisons**: Compare strings without regard to case
//! 3. **Data Validation**: Verify string equality with specific comparison rules
//! 4. **Search Operations**: Find matching strings in collections with case control
//! 5. **Alphabetical Ordering**: Determine alphabetical order for display or reports
//! 6. **User Input Validation**: Compare user input against expected values case-insensitively
//! 7. **Database Queries**: Build comparison logic for filtering and searching
//! 8. **File Comparisons**: Compare filenames or paths with case sensitivity control
//!
//! ## Basic Examples
//!
//! ### Example 1: Basic String Comparison
//! ```vb6
//! Dim result As Integer
//!
//! ' Binary comparison (case-sensitive)
//! result = StrComp("ABC", "abc", vbBinaryCompare)   ' Returns -1 (ABC < abc)
//! result = StrComp("ABC", "ABC", vbBinaryCompare)   ' Returns 0 (equal)
//! result = StrComp("abc", "ABC", vbBinaryCompare)   ' Returns 1 (abc > ABC)
//!
//! ' Text comparison (case-insensitive)
//! result = StrComp("ABC", "abc", vbTextCompare)     ' Returns 0 (equal)
//! result = StrComp("ABC", "ABD", vbTextCompare)     ' Returns -1 (ABC < ABD)
//! result = StrComp("XYZ", "ABC", vbTextCompare)     ' Returns 1 (XYZ > ABC)
//! ```
//!
//! ### Example 2: Using Return Value
//! ```vb6
//! Dim str1 As String
//! Dim str2 As String
//! Dim compareResult As Integer
//!
//! str1 = "Apple"
//! str2 = "apple"
//!
//! compareResult = StrComp(str1, str2, vbTextCompare)
//!
//! Select Case compareResult
//!     Case -1
//!         MsgBox str1 & " comes before " & str2
//!     Case 0
//!         MsgBox str1 & " equals " & str2
//!     Case 1
//!         MsgBox str1 & " comes after " & str2
//! End Select
//! ```
//!
//! ### Example 3: Case-Insensitive Search
//! ```vb6
//! Function FindInArray(arr() As String, searchValue As String) As Integer
//!     Dim i As Integer
//!     
//!     For i = LBound(arr) To UBound(arr)
//!         If StrComp(arr(i), searchValue, vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
//!             FindInArray = i
//!             Exit Function
//!         End If
//!     Next i
//!     
//!     FindInArray = -1  ' Not found
//! End Function
//! ```
//!
//! ### Example 4: Null Handling
//! ```vb6
//! Dim result As Variant
//! Dim str1 As Variant
//! Dim str2 As Variant
//!
//! str1 = "Hello"
//! str2 = Null
//!
//! result = StrComp(str1, str2)  ' Returns Null
//!
//! If IsNull(result) Then
//!     MsgBox "One of the strings is Null"
//! End If
//! ```
//!
//! ## Common Patterns
//!
//! ### Pattern 1: Bubble Sort with `StrComp`
//! ```vb6
//! Sub SortStrings(arr() As String, caseInsensitive As Boolean)
//!     Dim i As Integer
//!     Dim j As Integer
//!     Dim temp As String
//!     Dim compareMode As Integer
//!     
//!     compareMode = IIf(caseInsensitive, vbTextCompare, vbBinaryCompare)
//!     
//!     For i = LBound(arr) To UBound(arr) - 1
//!         For j = i + 1 To UBound(arr)
//!             If StrComp(arr(i), arr(j), compareMode) > 0 Then
//!                 temp = arr(i)
//!                 arr(i) = arr(j)
//!                 arr(j) = temp
//!             End If
//!         Next j
//!     Next i
//! End Sub
//! ```
//!
//! ### Pattern 2: Case-Insensitive Equality Check
//! ```vb6

//!     
//!     minStr = arr(LBound(arr))
//!     For i = LBound(arr) + 1 To UBound(arr)
//!         If StrComp(arr(i), minStr, vbTextCompare) < 0 Then
//!             minStr = arr(i)

//!         mid = (low + high) \ 2
//!         compareResult = StrComp(arr(mid), searchValue, vbTextCompare)
//!         
//!         If compareResult = 0 Then
//!             BinarySearch = mid
//!             Exit Function
//!         ElseIf compareResult < 0 Then
//!             low = mid + 1
//!         Else
//!             high = mid - 1
//!         End If
//!     Loop
//!     
//!     BinarySearch = -1  ' Not found
//! End Function
//! ```
//!
//! ### Pattern 5: Validate Against List

//!
//! ### Pattern 8: Natural Sort Helper

//! ' Provides string validation with comparison options
//! Option Explicit
//!
//! Private m_ValidValues As Collection
//! Private m_CaseInsensitive As Boolean
//!
//! Public Sub Initialize(caseInsensitive As Boolean)
//!     Set m_ValidValues = New Collection
//!     m_CaseInsensitive = caseInsensitive
//! End Sub
//!
//! Public Sub AddValidValue(value As String)
//!     ' Check for duplicates
//!     If Not IsValid(value) Then
//!         m_ValidValues.Add value
//!     End If
//! End Sub
//!
//! Public Function IsValid(value As String) As Boolean
//!     Dim item As Variant
//!     Dim compareMode As VbCompareMethod
//!     
//!     compareMode = IIf(m_CaseInsensitive, vbTextCompare, vbBinaryCompare)
//!     
//!     For Each item In m_ValidValues
//!         If StrComp(CStr(item), value, compareMode) = 0 Then
//!             IsValid = True
//!             Exit Function
//!         End If
//!     Next item
//!

//!

//!     Dim item As Variant
//!     Dim minDistance As Long
//!     Dim distance As Long
//!     Dim closest As String
//!     
//!     minDistance = 999999
//!     
//!     For Each item In m_ValidValues
//!         distance = GetEditDistance(value, CStr(item))
//!         If distance < minDistance Then
//!             minDistance = distance
//!             closest = CStr(item)
//!         End If
//!     Next item
//!     
//!     GetClosestMatch = closest
//! End Function
//!
//! Private Function GetEditDistance(str1 As String, str2 As String) As Long
//!     ' Simple implementation - just return length difference
//!     GetEditDistance = Abs(Len(str1) - Len(str2))
//! End Function
//!
//! Public Sub Clear()
//!     Set m_ValidValues = New Collection
//! End Sub
//!
//! Public Property Get Count() As Long
//!     Count = m_ValidValues.Count
//! End Property
//! ```
//!
//! ## Error Handling
//! The `StrComp` function does not raise errors under normal circumstances. However:
//!
//! - Returns `Null` if either string argument is `Null` (not an error)
//! - **Error 13 (Type mismatch)**: If arguments cannot be converted to strings
//! - **Error 5 (Invalid procedure call)**: If `compare` argument is not 0, 1, or 2
//!
//! ## Performance Notes
//! - **Binary comparison** is faster than text comparison
//! - Very fast for short strings (< 100 characters)
//! - Performance scales linearly with string length
//! - Text comparison requires case folding, adding overhead
//! - Consider using `=` operator if simple equality check suffices
//! - Cache comparison mode constant if used repeatedly in loops
//!
//! ## Best Practices
//! 1. **Use vbTextCompare constants** instead of numeric values (0, 1, 2) for clarity
//! 2. **Set Option Compare** at module level for consistent default behavior
//! 3. **Handle Null values** explicitly with `IsNull` check when dealing with Variants
//! 4. **Choose appropriate mode**: Use binary for exact matching, text for user-facing comparisons
//! 5. **Cache compare mode** in variables when using the same mode repeatedly
//! 6. **Use return value properly**: Remember -1, 0, 1 (not True/False)
//! 7. **Consider = operator** for simple equality checks (may be optimized better)
//! 8. **Document comparison mode** in function signatures and comments
//! 9. **Test edge cases**: Empty strings, Null values, Unicode characters
//! 10. **Use for sorting**: `StrComp` is ideal for custom sort implementations
//!
//! ## Comparison Table
//!
//! | Function | Returns | Case-Sensitive | Ordering | Null Handling |
//! |----------|---------|----------------|----------|---------------|
//! | `StrComp` | -1/0/1 | Configurable | Yes | Returns Null |
//! | `=` operator | Boolean | Per Option Compare | No | Error if Null |
//! | `InStr` | Position | Configurable | No | Returns Null |
//! | `Like` | Boolean | Per Option Compare | No | False if Null |
//!
//! ## Platform Notes
//! - Available in VB6, VBA, and `VBScript`
//! - Behavior consistent across platforms
//! - `vbDatabaseCompare` only meaningful in Microsoft Access
//! - Unicode comparison works correctly with international characters
//! - Option Compare affects default behavior differently in VBA vs VB6
//!
//! ## Limitations
//! - No support for locale-specific collation beyond text/binary
//! - Cannot specify custom comparison rules
//! - `vbDatabaseCompare` mode rarely useful outside Access
//! - Null handling returns Null rather than error (can be unexpected)
//! - No indication of *where* strings differ, only that they do
//! - Cannot compare string arrays directly (must loop)
//! - No natural sort support (e.g., "file2.txt" vs "file10.txt")
