For a case-insensitive test use count: {_x == "lol"} count ["Lol", "LOL", "loL"]; //returns 3. Checking if an array (for example a position) is in another array doesn't produce an error, but it will always return false. e.g. [0,0,0] in [[0,0,0],[1,4,3],[5,3,1]]; //returns: false.

Correction to the note above ^^^. In order to detect array in array, the argument has to be on the same "level" as in the array: [1,2,3] in [[1,2,3],[4,5,6]] will be false, but [[1,2,3]] in [[1,2,3],[4,5,6]] will be true.

As of 1.26: [0,0,0] in [[0,0,0],[1,4,3],[5,3,1]]; //returns true [1,2,3] in [[1,2,3],[4,5,6]]; //returns true [ [1,2,3] ] in [[1,2,3],[4,5,6]]; //returns false Assuming it is now using comparison as found in isEqualTo
