How to convert a string to uppercase letters

Paul Hudson    September 15th 2016    @twostraws

If you want to convert a string to uppercase – that is, WHERE EVERY LETTER IS A CAPITAL LETTER – you should use the uppercased() method of your string, like this:

let str = "Sunday, Monday, Happy Days"
print(str.uppercased())

That code will print "SUNDAY, MONDAY, HAPPY DAYS" into the Xcode console.

Available from iOS 2.0
