Remarks
toupper is a function that converts an integer ch (in the range EOF to 255) to its uppercase value {A to Z; if it was lowercase, atoz). All others are left unchanged.
Return value
toupper returns the converted value of ch if it is lowercase; it returns all others unchanged.
Example
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
*include <ctype.h>
int main (void)
{
int length, i;
char *string = "this is a string";
length = strlen(string) ;
for (i = 0; i < length; i++)
string [i] = toupper(string [i]);
printf ("%s\n",string);
return 0; '
