How do I convert a string to all upper or lower case?

Library Functions
Some libraries have routines strupr and strlwr or strupper and strlower, but these are not Standard or portable. It's a straightforward exercise to write upper/lower-case functions in terms of the toupper and tolower macros in <ctype.h>; see also question 13.5. (The only tricky part is that the function will either have to modify the string in-place or deal with the problem of returning a new string; see question 7.5a.

Should I enter the letters of the serial number in UPPER or lower case?

Where's George? ® 2.2 Frequently Asked Questions
This usually happens when people double-click on the submit button, instead of single clicking it. If you just click the button once, it should work fine. Also, there is a known problem with older browsers sending your bill submission twice, instead of once. You are seeing the result of the second entry (which fails because your first entry was already processed, but you didn't see the result).

What case should I program in, upper or lower?

FAQ for TSO/REXX
Readability can be improved by writing Rexx as if it were a human language and not as if it were JCL or assembly code. Avoid having the entire program in upper case, this is known as shouting and does nothing to help readability. It is common to write commands addressed to external environments in upper case, and to use mixed case for Rexx commands and symbols. If a call returns a value that is not a return code, it may be better to call it as a function rather than a procedure.

Are Upper and Lower Case Letters Different?

USTINET Whois, Domain Name Check
No. There is no distinction between the cases. It does not matter whether you write »McDonalds« or »mcdonalds«. Usually the case is chosen for best reading results. Note, however, that on Unix systems, file and authentication case distinction is usually a default, so, index.html and Index.html can be two separate files.

Should I use lower case or upper case for tags?

Web Authoring FAQ (WDG)
Tags are case insensitive, so it doesn't matter. This is just a matter of style. (You may have noticed that this FAQ is not absolutely consistent in capitalization.) Many people prefer upper case, as it makes the tags "stand out" better amongst the text. Attribute names can also be upper or lower case, as you prefer. But some attribute values are case sensitive. For example, <OL TYPE=A> and <OL type=A> are the same, but <OL TYPE=a> is different from both of them.

Web Authoring FAQ (Web Design Group)
In HTML, element and attribute names in tags are case insensitive, so it doesn't matter. The choice is just a matter of style and personal preference. (You may have noticed that this FAQ is not absolutely consistent in capitalization.) Many people prefer upper case, which makes the tags "stand out" more amongst the text, and makes it easier to find element or attribute names using an editor's search function.

What about upper and lower case characters, spaces, underlines, or punctuation in a Domain Name?

Business Registration Questions
For Domain Names, the computer does not differentiate between upper and lower case characters, so most names appear in all lower case; however, you can register your name in all upper case or a combination of both. Spaces, commas, and periods cannot be used. Underlines can be used instead of spaces but they are often confused with dashes and should be avoided. No. It is up to your company to assign the names shown to the left of your Domain Name.

Why does Fundations teach lower case letter formation before upper case letter formation?

Fundations- Wilson Language Basics for K-3
When teaching students to read and write simultaneously, instruction of lower case letters first works best. Fundations presents lower case letters first because lower case letters occur much more often in text than do upper case letters. Lower case letters also ‘pull together visually’ more easily than upper case letters when students are forming words, and, since lower case letters are rounder, they allow for faster writing once the formations are learned.

Why do you force all tokens into lower case?

SpamBayes FAQ
This was very carefully considered. Folding letters to lower case does hide information (and we're not really sure what it does to non-English languages), but on the plus side, it reduces the size of the database. In the end, testing with case folding resulted in no change in the false positive rate, and a small reduction in the false negative rate, so that's what we do. There is one exception: we retain case in subject lines, because testing showed an improvement if we did that.

Question: Why are the lower case c's missing (or upper case K's) from the PDF?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Answer: This is an issue with Acrobat Reader 3, demonstrated when handling some font glyphs. We use the Microsoft PostScript driver which produces the glyph names and the one that happens to be the problem is g46. This causes Reader 3 to not display the character although Readers 4 and 5 are OK. We get a different result depending whether Windows NT or Windows 98 is used (different Microsoft PostScript drivers). In one it will miss 'K' and in the other, 'c'.

How do I do a case-insensitive string comparison?

Andy Mc's C# FAQ for C++ programmers
Use the String.Compare function. Its third parameter is a boolean which specifies whether case should be ignored or not. "fred" == "Fred" // false System.String.Compare( "fred", "Fred", true ) == 0 // true For more control over the comparison, e.g. exotic features like width-sensitivity, consider using System.Globalization.CompareInfo.Compare(), e.g. CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.CompareInfo.Compare( "fred", "Fred", CompareOptions.IgnoreCase | CompareOptions.IgnoreKanaType | CompareOptions.
