Here, our task is to replace all the lower-case characters in the string to upper-case and upper-case characters to lower-case. For this purpose, we need to traverse the string and check for each character. If the character is a lower-case character, make it upper-case by using the language-specific built-in method or add 32 to the lower-case character in C to change the ASCII value of the character.

Algorithm

Define a string and traverse through it.
If the lower-case character is encountered then convert them in upper case character using built-in function.
If the upper-case character is encountered then convert them in upper case character using built-in function.
If it's a character other than upper-case or lower-case alphabet take the character as it is.

Input:

str1 = "Great Power"

Output:

String after case conversion : gREAT pOWER

Python

str1="Great Power";  
newStr = "";  
   
for i in range(0, len(str1)):  
    #Checks for lower case character  
    if str1[i].islower():  
        #Convert it into upper case using upper () function  
        newStr += str1[i].upper();  
    #Checks for upper case character  
    elif str1[i].isupper():  
        #Convert it into lower case using lower () function  
        newStr += str1[i].lower();  
      
    else:  
        newStr += str1[i];          
print("String after case conversion : " +  newStr);

Output:

String after case conversion : gREAT pOWER

C

#include <stdio.h>  
int main()  
{  
    int i, len = 0;  
    char str[] = "Great Power";  
      
    //Calculating length of the array  
    len = sizeof(str)/sizeof(str[0]);  
      
    //Checks every character in the array  
    for(i = 0; i < len; i++){  
          
        //Checks whether a character is upper case character  
        if(isupper(str[i])){  
            //Convert that charcter to lower case  
            str[i] = tolower(str[i]);  
        }  
        //Checks whether a character is lower case character  
        else if(islower(str[i])){  
            //Convert that charcter to upper case  
            str[i] = toupper(str[i]);  
        }  
    }  
    printf("String after case conversion : %s", str);  
    return 0;  
}

Output:

JAVA

public class changeCase {
