The HasLower(s) command determines whether s has a lowercase letter. A character is lowercase if it is one of the following:

If s has at least one lowercase letter, then HasLower returns true. Otherwise, false is returned.

The HasUpper(s) command determines whether s has an uppercase letter. A character is uppercase if it is one of the following:

If s has at least one uppercase letter, then HasUpper returns true. Otherwise, false is returned.

The HasAlpha(s) command determines whether s has an alphabetic character. A character is alphabetic if it is either upper or lowercase.

If s has at least one alphabetic character, HasAlpha returns true. Otherwise, false is returned.

All of the StringTools package commands treat strings as (null-terminated) sequences of $8$-bit (ASCII) characters. Thus, there is no support for multibyte character encodings, such as unicode encodings.

The StringTools[HasLower], StringTools[HasUpper] and StringTools[HasAlpha] commands are thread-safe as of Maple 15.

For more information on thread safety, see index/threadsafe .
