The STRLOWCASE function returns a copy of String converted to lowercase characters. Only uppercase characters are modified—lowercase and non-alphabetic characters are copied without change.
Examples
To convert the string “IDL is fun” to all lowercase characters and print the result, enter:
PRINT, STRLOWCASE('IDL is fun')
IDL prints:
idl is fun
Syntax
Result = STRLOWCASE(String)
Return Value
Returns a string composed of lowercase characters.
Arguments
String
The string to be converted. If this argument is not a string, it is converted using IDL’s default formatting rules. If String is an array, the result is an array with the same structure—each element contains a lower case copy of the corresponding element of String.
Keywords
None.
