# uppercased()

Returns an uppercased version of this character.

## Declaration

```swift
func uppercased() -> String
```

## Discussion

Discussion Because case conversion can result in multiple characters, the result of uppercased() is a string. let chars: [Character] = ["e", "é", "и", "π", "ß", "1"] for ch in chars {     print(ch, "-->", ch.uppercased()) } // Prints: // e --> E // é --> É // и --> И // π --> Π // ß --> SS // 1 --> 1
