I have six string variables say str11, str12, str13, str21, str21 and str23.

I need to compare combination of these variables.

The combinations I have to check is str11 — str12 — str13 as one group and str21 — str22 — str23 as other group. I have to compare these two groups.

Now I’m in confusion which method should I use for comparison?

Can I append strings of same group and compare, which is only one comparison say ( str11 append str12 append str13 ) eqauls ( str21 append str22 append str23 )

Or

Should I go for individual 3 comparisons?

if( str11 equals str21 ) {      if( str12 equals str22 ) {          if( str13 equals str23 ) {          }      }  }

What is performance factor which costs me because of string length when I do string comparison? Lets us assume all strings are of same( approx ) length.

  1. I’d test individually.

    Is “AB” “CD” “EF” equal to “ABC” “DE” “F”?

    Me thinks not.

    P.S. If it is, then it’s a VERY special case, and if you decide to code it that way (as a concatenated comparison) then comment the hell out of it.
