Idiom #133 Case-insensitive string contains

Set boolean ok to true if string word is contained in string s as a substring, even if the case doesn't match, or to false otherwise.

OK := Pos(LowerCase(AWord), LowerCase(S)) > 0;

Word is a predefined type in Pascal, so I named the variable AWord.
#include <algorithm>
#include <cctype>
auto ok = std::search(std::begin(s), std::end(s), std::begin(word), std::end(word),
    [](auto c, auto d){
        return std::tolower(c) == std::tolower(d);
    }
) != std::end(s);

New implementation...
