CODE 1: String with only alphabetic characters
# Python3 program to show the# working of upper() functiontext = 'geeKs For geEkS' print("Original String:")print(text) # upper() function to convert # string to upper_caseprint("\nConverted String:")print(text.upper()) |
Output :
Original String: geeKs For geEkS Converted String: GEEKS FOR GEEKS
CODE 2: String with alphanumeric characters
# Python3 program to show the# working of upper() functiontext = 'g3Ek5 f0r gE3K5' print("Original String:")print(text) # upper() function to convert # string to upper_caseprint("\nConverted String:")print(text.upper()) |
Output :
Original String: g3Ek5 f0r gE3K5 Converted String: G3EK5 F0R GE3K5
Application: One of the common application of upper() method is to check if the two strings are same or not
# Python3 program to show the# working of upper() functiontext1 = 'geeks fOr geeks' text2 = 'gEeKS fOR GeeKs' # Comparison of strings using # upper() methodif(text1.upper() == text2.upper()): print("Strings are same")else: print("Strings are not same") |
Output:
Strings are same
