The .lowercase()
method in Kotlin changes all characters in a string to lowercase. It does not modify the original string, rather it returns a new transformed string. This is useful when case-sensitive operations are performed.
Syntax
String.lowercase()
String
: The string to be converted to lowercase.
Example
The following example shows how to use the .lowercase()
method on a string:
fun main() {val originalString = "Hello, World!"val newString = originalString.lowercase()println("Original String: $originalString")println("Lowercased String: $newString")}
The above code will return the following output:
Original String: Hello, World!Lowercased String: hello, world!
