19-725: In 1946, Otto Mecheels founded the Hohenstein Laboratories . Mecheels had taught students in Mönchengladbach at the time and had returned to his home Hohenstein with his staff after World War II . He continued teaching in the Renaissance castle Hohenstein, which he rented from the French military government. Since 1952, the castle has been in possession of the Mecheels family. From the 1960s onwards, Jürgen Mecheels, son of Otto, took over

38-403: A function is defined in lowercase, it can be called in uppercase, but if a variable is defined in lowercase, it cannot be referred to in uppercase. Nim is case-insensitive and ignores underscores, as long as the first characters match. A text search operation could be case-sensitive or case-insensitive, depending on the system, application, or context. The user can in many cases specify whether

57-468: A search is sensitive to case, e.g. in most text editors, word processors, and Web browsers. A case-insensitive search is more comprehensive, finding "Language" (at the beginning of a sentence), "language", and "LANGUAGE" (in a title in capitals); a case-sensitive search will find the computer language "BASIC" but exclude most of the many unwanted instances of the word. For example, the Google Search engine

76-407: A source code tree for software for Unix-like systems might have both a file named Makefile and a file named makefile in the same directory. In addition, some Mac Installers assume case insensitivity and fail on case-sensitive file systems. The older MS-DOS filesystems FAT12 and FAT16 were case-insensitive and not case-preserving, so that a file whose name is entered as readme.txt or ReadMe.txt

95-579: Is a research institute cooperating with the industry. Furthermore, it advises companies and provides training as well as research-related testing services. Among other things, the group's projects explore areas of product application and develop product concepts for textiles and clothing. The Hohenstein Group is member of several research cooperations, such as the Innovationsallianz Baden-Württemberg (Innovation Alliance Baden-Württemberg) or

114-578: Is basically case-insensitive, with no option for case-sensitive search. In Oracle SQL, most operations and searches are case-sensitive by default, while in most other DBMSes , SQL searches are case-insensitive by default. Case-insensitive operations are sometimes said to fold case , from the idea of folding the character code table so that upper- and lowercase letters coincide. In filesystems in Unix-like systems, filenames are usually case-sensitive (there can be separate readme.txt and Readme.txt files in

133-605: Is saved as README.TXT. Later, with VFAT in Windows 95 the FAT file systems became case-preserving as an extension of supporting long filenames . Later Windows file systems such as NTFS are internally case-sensitive, and a readme.txt and a Readme.txt can coexist in the same directory. However, for practical purposes filenames behave as case-insensitive as far as users and most software are concerned. This can cause problems for developers or software coming from Unix-like environments, similar to

152-463: The Allianz für Faserbasierte Werkstoffe Baden-Württemberg e. V. (Alliance for fiber-based materials Baden-Württemberg). The Hohenstein Group specialises in testing, certifying and researching textile products of all kinds, and employs around 1,000 people with 5,000 customers from industry, trade, and commerce. The shares in the company are owned by the founding family Mecheels. A family advisory board

The group works in different areas: softlines and hardlines, tests in the field of conformity with sustainability criteria such as the Oeko-Tex standards, performance of products related to health standards, fit, functionality and textile care. Hohenstein conducts research within the framework of public projects and

209-589: The family business has been managed by Stefan Mecheels, the third generation, expanding the Hohenstein Group's laboratory network overseas and founding the Hohenstein Academy. Laboratory locations were established in India , Bangladesh , Hong Kong , Shanghai and Hungary between 1995 and 2015, as well as a total of 46 foreign offices in 42 countries. Until 2022, new facilities at the headquarters followed, and

228-525: The institution and expanded it internationally, adding new services and areas of research. He was a co-founder of the International Association for Research and Testing with its Oeko-Tex test certificate. With the certificate, the group awards, among other things, the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 . The label certifies textiles tested for harmful substances and can be found worldwide. Since 1995,

247-622: The international network expanded to 45 countries. In addition, at the end of 2022, the group invested in the company Sizekick , a spin-off of the consultancy Presize . In 2023, the laboratory QAT Services Limited in Hong Kong was acquired. The acquisition expanded the testing spectrum to include food contact materials, furniture , toys , hardlines and other goods. Hohenstein carries out tests and assessments of product quality and performance in its accredited laboratories. The test results are documented with various certificates and labels, such as

Retrieved from " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hohenstein_(Bönnigheim) " Case sensitivity In computers, case sensitivity defines whether uppercase and lowercase letters are treated as distinct ( case-sensitive ) or equivalent ( case-insensitive ). For instance, when users interested in learning about dogs search an e-book , "dog" and "Dog" are of

285-506: The same directory). MacOS is somewhat unusual in that, by default, it uses HFS+ and APFS in a case-insensitive (so that there cannot be a readme.txt and a Readme.txt in the same directory) but case-preserving mode (so that a file created as readme.txt is shown as readme.txt and a file created as Readme.txt is shown as Readme.txt) by default. This causes some issues for developers and power users , because most file systems in other Unix-like environments are case-sensitive, and, for example,

304-763: The same significance to them. Thus, they request a case-insensitive search. But when they search an online encyclopedia for information about the United Nations , for example, or something with no ambiguity regarding capitalization and ambiguity between two or more terms cut down by capitalization, they may prefer a case-sensitive search. Case sensitivity may differ depending on the situation: Some programming languages are case-sensitive for their identifiers ( C , C++ , Java , C# , Verilog , Ruby , Python and Swift ). Others are case-insensitive (i.e., not case-sensitive), such as ABAP , Ada , most BASICs (an exception being BBC BASIC ), Common Lisp , Fortran , SQL (for

323-508: The syntax, and for some vendor implementations, e.g. Microsoft SQL Server , the data itself) Pascal , Rexx and ooRexx . There are also languages, such as Haskell , Prolog , and Go , in which the capitalisation of an identifier encodes information about its semantics . Some other programming languages have varying case sensitivity; in PHP , for example, variable names are case-sensitive but function names are not case-sensitive. This means that if

342-1376: The umbrella of HL. HTTI conducts materials testings, related to textile and/or related products. HIT conducts research in the fields of textile, hygiene and related areas.
