You are mistaken. That is a string comparison. The "integer expression expected" error message came from a non-integer value in $letter when evaluating "[ $letter -eq 0 ]".

NAME
towupper, towupper_l -- lower case to upper case letter conversion (wide character version)
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <wctype.h>
wint_t
towupper(wint_t wc);
#include <wctype.h>
#include <xlocale.h>
wint_t
towupper_l(wint_t wc, locale_t loc);
DESCRIPTION
The towupper() function converts a lower-case letter to the corresponding upper-case letter.
Although the towupper() function uses the current locale, the towupper_l() function may be passed a locale directly. See xlocale(3) for more
information.
RETURN VALUES
If the argument is a lower-case letter, the towupper() function returns the corresponding upper-case letter if there is one; otherwise, the
argument is returned unchanged.
