The upper
method in Python converts all the characters of a string to uppercase.
string_A.upper()
The function takes in no parameters.
The function returns a new string that is created from string_A
by converting all the characters of string_A
to uppercase.
If there are no lowercase characters in
string_A
, then the original string is returned.
string_A = "eduCativE"print(string_A, " upper() -> ", string_A.upper())
In the code above, we create an eduCativE
string and call the upper
method, which converts all of the characters of the string to uppercase and returns EDUCATIVE
.
string_A = "Educative"string_B = "EDUCATIVE"print("String_A = ", string_A)print("String_B = ", string_B)print("String_A == String_B ", string_A == string_B)print("String_A.upper() == String_B.upper() ", string_A.upper() == string_B.upper())
In the code above, we create two strings, Educative
and EDUCATTIVE
. We get False
when we compare the two strings because the cases of the strings are different.
We then use the upper
method to convert both strings to uppercase. After both strings are converted to uppercase, we get True
when we check whether the two strings are the same.
