[Solved] If var is upper/lower with international characters

[Okram]

I need to recognize upper/lower case of a string. I tried If var is upper but it does not recognize international characters. Is there any other way?

Code: Select all

var:="Д"
if var is upper
	msgbox UPPER  ;doesn't work

[AlphaBravo]

this worked for me

Code: Select all

var:="Д"
StringLower, lower, var
if !(var==lower)
	MsgBox Upper

Thanks, however my example was misleading - I need to check the longer string, not just one character. Are all characters in the string Upper case?
Like;

Code: Select all

var:="ДОБРО"
if var is upper
	msgbox Upper

[IMEime]

Code: Select all

Russian := "ДОБРО"
Loop, Parse, Russian
{
	StringLower, Lower, A_LoopField
	Result .= A_LoopField " : " ( A_LoopField == Lower ? "Lower":"Upper" ) "`n"
}
Msgbox % Result

If you have an answer, please check it as [Solved] in you title.


(PS:
His code was right. "True if var is empty or contains only lowercase characters. False if there are any digits, spaces, tabs, punctuation, or other non-lowercase characters anywhere in the string.")

Slightly changing AlphaBravo's code makes a simpler solution.

Code: Select all

var:="ДОБРО"
varl:="добро"
stringUpper,upper,var ; change to varl if you want to ensure it correctly capitalizes (it does)
if(var==upper)
    msgbox Upper
if !(varl==upper)
    msgbox Lower
msgbox % var "`n" varl "`n" upper

Thanks to all for responding. AlphaBravo's code recognizes a string including any one upper case character like доБро as Upper.

I need to recognize if a string is in ALL CAPS. I guess the only way is to parse a string and test character by character like IMEime demonstrated.

Masonjar13 already gave you a working answer.

Code: Select all

var:="ДОБРО"
stringUpper,upper,var
if(var==upper)
    msgbox Upper

[just me]

'Modern' function:

Code: Select all

#NoEnv
Var := "ДОБРО"
MsgBox, 0, IsUpper(Var), % "IsUpper(""" . Var . """) = " . IsUpper(Var)

IsUpper(String) {
   Return (String == Format("{:U}", String))
}

Of course... thanks to all!
