       int tolower(int c);

DESCRIPTION

       The  tolower()  function  has  as  a domain a type int, the value of which is representable as an unsigned char or the value of EOF. If the

       is the corresponding lower-case letter. All other arguments in the domain are returned unchanged.

RETURN VALUES

       unchanged.
