isupper

isupper(c::Union{Char,AbstractString}) -> Bool

Tests whether a character is an uppercase letter, or whether this is true for all elements of a string. A character is classified as uppercase if it belongs to Unicode category Lu, Letter: Uppercase, or Lt, Letter: Titlecase.

Examples

In the Julia programming language, the function isupper(c::Union{Char, AbstractString}) -> Bool is used to determine whether a character is an uppercase letter or if all elements of a string are uppercase letters. The function returns true if the character or all elements of the string are uppercase, and false otherwise.

Examples of how to use isupper function:

Check if a character is uppercase:
```
julia> isupper('A')
true

julia> isupper('a')
false
```
In this example, isupper returns true for an uppercase character 'A' and false for a lowercase character 'a'.
Check if all characters in a string are uppercase:
```
julia> isupper("JULIA")
true

julia> isupper("Julia")
false
```
The isupper function can also be used to check if all characters in a string are uppercase. It returns true if all characters in the string are uppercase and false otherwise.

Common mistake example:

julia> isupper("JULIA!")
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching isupper(::String)

In this example, the isupper function is called with a string that contains non-alphabetic characters. The isupper function can only be used with characters or strings consisting of alphabetic characters.
