Method Detail

### compareArray

    public static int compareArray(char[] larray,
                                   int lstartIndex,
                                   char[] rarray,
                                   int rstartIndex)

  compare two arrays starting at the specified offsets.

  Parameters:
    `larray` - left array
    `lstartIndex` - start offset into larray
    `rarray` - right array
    `rstartIndex` - start offset into rarray
  Returns:
    0 if the arrays are equal，1 if larray > rarray, -1 if larray < rarray

### compareArrayByPrefix

    public static int compareArrayByPrefix(char[] shortArray,
                                           int shortIndex,
                                           char[] longArray,
                                           int longIndex)

  Compare two arrays, starting at the specified offsets, but treating shortArray as a prefix to longArray. As long as shortArray is a prefix of longArray, return 0. Otherwise, behave as `compareArray(char[], int, char[], int)`

  Parameters:
    `shortArray` - prefix array
    `shortIndex` - offset into shortArray
    `longArray` - long array (word)
    `longIndex` - offset into longArray
  Returns:
    0 if shortArray is a prefix of longArray, otherwise act as `compareArray(char[], int, char[], int)`

### getCharType

    public static int getCharType(char ch)

  Return the internal `CharType` constant of a given character.

  Parameters:
    `ch` - input character
  Returns:
    constant from `CharType` describing the character type.

    `CharType`
