I am currently working on a project that checks handwritten examination paper with the use of image processing. is MATLAB capable of comparing text files that is case insensitive?

To check the examination, i am going to compare two text files. one is the examination and the other is the answer key. i want to compare those two with the use of image processing. it would be also of great help if MATLAB is capable of comparing those in case insensitive. also, if it can entertain multiple possible answers for each line.

Because you are using images you would need to use ocr. You can use lower() on the recognized text before doing the comparison.

Note: the comparison tool does not have an option for ignoring case distinctions.
