Description | Use the is among operator to find out whether a string exists as an entire word, item, or line of another string. The valueToFind must be a single word, item, or line (whichever chunk type you have specified). If you specify a string containing more than one chunk, the is among operator evaluates to false, even if all the chunks are in the stringToSearch. The is among operator is the logical inverse of the is not among operator. When one is true, the other is false. 'is among the bytes' should be used to check if a binary strings contains the given bytes. | |||||||||
