Within an equivalence class, lowercase characters collate before their uppercase equivalents and locale-specific order may apply to the characters with diacritics. In some locales, groups of characters compare as single <i>collation units</i>. For example, <code>"ch"</code> in Czech follows <code>"h"</code> and precedes <code>"i"</code>, and <code>"dzs"</code> in Hungarian follows <code>"dz"</code> and precedes <code>"g"</code>.</p> +<h3 id="Example"> Example</h3> <div class="t-example"> <div class="c source-c"><pre data-language="c">#include <locale.h> +#include <stdio.h> +#include <string.h> + +int main(void) +{ + setlocale(LC_COLLATE, "cs_CZ.utf8"); + // Alternatively, ISO-8859-2 (a.k.a.
