in another language, text typed in console is not the same as the text in the code-CodePudding

I'm trying to ask for input from the console in Hebrew and then compare it to a premade table. Problem is for some reason the text from the console and what i typed in the code aren't the same.

through testing i found that with the following code, if i type א in console, it returns no. Why does it do this and how do i fix it?

string t = Console.ReadLine();
if (t == "א")
{
    Console.WriteLine("yes");
}
else { Console.WriteLine("no"); }

CodePudding user response：

using System.Text;

Console.InputEncoding = Encoding.Unicode;
Console.OutputEncoding = Encoding.Unicode;

string t = Console.ReadLine();
if (t == "א")
{
    Console.WriteLine("yes");
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine("no");
}

Worked for me copy/pasting א in.
