I would have thought 5=005 would evaluate as true and "5"="005" would evaluate as false.
LC will read "5" as a number because it will interpret what is inside the quotes rather than see the whole thing as a string. You have to add the quotes to the string specifically: quote & "5" & quote.
After that, LC wakes up and realizes you really do want a string. I think it's a side-effect of using an untyped language.
