case-insensitive
Treating letters equally
Case-insensitive describes text matching that treats uppercase and lowercase letters as equivalent.
A case-insensitive search for "Apple" would find "apple," "APPLE," and "aPpLe." Most email addresses and web URLs are case-insensitive.
The opposite is case-sensitive, where capitalization matters.
