    sequence s

-- your case:

    s = {"o", 3}

    if compare(s[1],"o") then   -- note: "0" is a sequence,
        ? s[1]                  -- so is s[1]. look at compare().
    else
        ? "not eaual!"
    end if

--  but note the following case:

    s = {'o', 3}                -- 'o' an integer which
                                -- represents char. 'o'
    if s[1] = 'o'  then
        ? s[1]
    else
        ? "not eaual!"
    end if

Have a nice day, Rolf
