# numericStringMatch

Compares an assertion of Numeric String syntax to a value whose syntax is the ASN.1 NumericString type.

The rule evaluates to TRUE if and only if the prepared attribute value string and prepared assertion value string have the same number of characters, and corresponding characters have the same code point. For the comparison, characters are not case folded, and only insignificant white space handling is applied.
