ArrayFindNoCase

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:


    ( value, index ) => {
 	  	return true; // if the value is found, else false
   }

Example:


   array = [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ];
  index = array.find( ( value, index ) -> {
 		return value == 3;
 } );

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.

ArrayFindNoCase(array=[array], value=[any], substringMatch=[boolean])

Arguments

Argument Type Required Description Default

Argument	Type	Required	Description	Default
`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`
