Localization: 5.5 Lexical Functions: Lexical Values

LocalLexicalValue(), LocalLexicalValueNoCase()

If for some reason you want to get the lexical value of a character, these functions will return it. LocalLexicalValue() , passed a character, returns its lexical value. LocalLexicalValueNoCase() does the same thing but ignores case. If the lexical value for one character is lower than another, that character comes first alphabetically. For instance, "a" would have a lower lexical value than "z." This ordering will be valid in any language using the same character set.
