The fun thing about chars is that they're numbers under the hood

An uppercase version of a letter has an ASCII value 32 lower than the lowercase

well we had to make user input then you type something random, and if the program sees lowercase it trasnforms that letter into uppercase, but catpat

And this is how you can transform lowercase into uppercase without using .ToUpper() A string is just a char[] under the hood Loop over the string, uppercase each char Assemble the string back with new string(char[])

For the second part find the middle by deviding the length by two and then do a loop of some sort to achieve what you're trying to achieve

Loop over the outer string, when you hit the midpoint loop over the inner string, go back to the outer string
