Array finders and contains functions with and without case sensitivity.
Please note that "contain" methods return a boolean, while "find" methods return an index. If you use a function as the value, it will be used as a search closure or lambda. The signature of the function should be:
Example:
We recommend you use BoxLang lambdas ({@code ->}) for this purpose, so they only act upon the value and index without any side effects. They will be faster and more efficient.
array
array
true
The array to be searched.
value
any
true
The value to find or a closure to be used as a search function.
substringMatch
boolean
false
If true, the search will be a substring match. Default is false. This only works on simple values, not complex ones. For that just use a function filter.
false
