Python Swapcase String Method

In this Python tutorial, we look at the Python swapcase string method which allows us to be able to switch uppercase characters to lowercase and lowercase to uppercase. The swapcase string method is very straight forward if you have a lowercase character it will be converted to uppercase and uppercase will be converted to lowercase.  There are no arguments for this string method.
