String s1="efaculty";  
String s2="efaculty";  
String s3="EFACULTY";  
String s4="java";  
System.out.println(s1.equalsIgnoreCase(s2));//true because content and case both are same  
System.out.println(s1.equalsIgnoreCase(s3));//true because case is ignored  
System.out.println(s1.equalsIgnoreCase(s4));//false because content is not same
