uppercase

Converts this character to upper case using Unicode mapping rules of the invariant locale.

This function supports one-to-many character mapping, thus the length of the returned string can be greater than one. For example, '\uFB00'.uppercase() returns "\u0046\u0046", where '\uFB00' is the LATIN SMALL LIGATURE FF character (ff). If this character has no upper case mapping, the result of toString() of this char is returned.

Samples

import samples.*
import java.util.*
import kotlin.test.*
fun main() { 
   //sampleStart 
   val chars = listOf('a', 'ω', '1', 'ʼn', 'A', '+', 'ß')
val uppercaseChar = chars.map { it.uppercaseChar() }
val uppercase = chars.map { it.uppercase() }
assertPrints(uppercaseChar, "[A, Ω, 1, ʼn, A, +, ß]")
assertPrints(uppercase, "[A, Ω, 1, ʼN, A, +, SS]") 
   //sampleEnd
}

Returns a copy of this string converted to upper case using Unicode mapping rules of the invariant locale.

This function supports one-to-many and many-to-one character mapping, thus the length of the returned string can be different from the length of the original string.

Samples

import java.util.Locale
import kotlin.test.*
fun main() { 
   //sampleStart 
   assertPrints("Iced frappé!".uppercase(), "ICED FRAPPÉ!") 
   //sampleEnd
}

Converts this character to upper case using Unicode mapping rules of the specified locale.

This function supports one-to-many character mapping, thus the length of the returned string can be greater than one. For example, '\uFB00'.uppercase(Locale.US) returns "\u0046\u0046", where '\uFB00' is the LATIN SMALL LIGATURE FF character (ff). If this character has no upper case mapping, the result of toString() of this char is returned.
