std.uni.toUpper - multiple declarations

Function toUpper

If c is a Unicode lowercase character, then its uppercase equivalent is returned. Otherwise c is returned.

dchar toUpper (
  dchar c
) pure nothrow @nogc @safe;

Warning

Certain alphabets like German and Greek have no 1:1 upper-lower mapping. Use overload of toUpper which takes full string instead.

toUpper can be used as an argument to map to produce an algorithm that can convert a range of characters to upper case without allocating memory. A string can then be produced by using copy to send it to an appender.

Example

import std.algorithm.iteration : map;
import std.algorithm.mutation : copy;
import std.array : appender;

auto abuf = appender!(char[])();
"hello".map!toUpper.copy(abuf);
writeln(abuf.data); // "HELLO"

Function toUpper

Allocates a new array which is identical to s except that all of its characters are converted to uppercase (by preforming Unicode uppercase mapping). If none of s characters were affected, then s itself is returned if s is a string-like type.

ElementEncodingType!S[] toUpper(S) (
  S s
)
if (isSomeString!S || isRandomAccessRange!S && hasLength!S && hasSlicing!S && isSomeChar!(ElementType!S));

Parameters

NameDescription
s A random access range of characters

Returns

An new array with the same element type as s.
