How to check if a character is upper-case in Python

You can use this regex     A-Z  a-z       A-Z  a-z        Sample code   import re  strings     Alpha beta Gamma    Alpha Beta Gamma   pattern   r   A-Z  a-z       A-Z  a-z        for s in strings      if re match pattern  s           print s     conforms      else          print s     doesn t conform    As seen on codepad
