bool ctype_upper (string $text)
DESCRIPTION

EXAMPLES
Example #1
A ctype_upper(3) example (using the default locale)
<?php
$strings = array('AKLWC139', 'LMNSDO', 'akwSKWsm');
foreach ($strings as $testcase) {
if (ctype_upper($testcase)) {
echo "The string $testcase consists of all uppercase letters.
";
} else {
echo "The string $testcase does not consist of all uppercase letters.
