CONFORMING TO
BUGS
The details of what constitutes an uppercase or lowercase letter depend
on the current locale. For example, the default
locale does not know about umlauts, so no conversion is done for them.
In some non - English locales, there are lowercase letters with no
corresponding uppercase equivalent; the German sharp s is one
example.
