Before going to know about how to convert upper case to lower case letters without string convert function.
Let us have a look on program to convert upper to lower using convert function, then you will get a clarity on what we are doing in the program −
Example
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(){
char string[50];
printf("enter a string to convert to lower case\n");
gets(string); /reading the string
printf("The string in lower case: %s\n", strlwr(string)); //strlwr converts all upper to
lower
return 0;
}Output
enter a string to convert to lower case CProgramming LangUage The string in lower case: cprogramming language
Now let's see the program to convert upper to lower without using predefined function −
Example
#include<stdio.h>
void main(){
//Declaring variable for For loop (to read each position of alphabet) and string//
int i;
char string[40];
//Reading string//
printf("Enter the string : ");
gets(string);
//For loop to read each alphabet//
for(i=0;string[i]!='\0';i++){
if(string[i]>=65&&string[i]<=90){
string[i]=string[i]+32;
}
}
printf("The converted lower case string is : ");
puts(string);
}Output
Enter the string : TUTORIALSPOINT The converted lower case string is : tutorialspoint
