Excel's EXACT function - What does it do?

The Excel EXACT function compares two text values and returns TRUE if they are identical and FALSE if they are not identical.

If cell A1 contains Hello and cell B1 contains hello,
=EXACT(A1,B1) will return FALSE because the Hello in A1 has a capital letter.
