				auto toLower(C)
				(
				

				  C c
				

				)
				

				if (is(C : dchar));

Parameters

Name	Description
c	A character of any type that implicitly converts to `dchar`. In the case where it's a built-in type, or an enum of a built-in type, `Unqual!(OriginalType!C)` is returned, whereas if it's a user-defined type, `dchar` is returned.

Returns

The corresponding lowercase letter, if c is an uppercase ASCII character, otherwise c itself.

Example

writeln(toLower('a')); // 'a'
writeln(toLower('A')); // 'a'
writeln(toLower('#')); // '#'

// N.B.: Non-ASCII Unicode uppercase letters are not converted.
writeln(toLower('Á')); // 'Á'
