The uppercase() method of stream manipulators in C++ is used to set the uppercase format flag for the specified str stream. This flag makes the output operations to use capital letters instead of lowercase letters.

ios_base& uppercase (ios_base& str)

Parameters: This method accepts str as a parameter which is the stream for which the format flag is affected.

Return Value: This method returns the stream str with uppercase format flag set.

Example 1:




// C++ code to demonstrate
// the working of uppercase() function
  
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
  
using namespace std;
  
int main()
{
  
    // Initializing the int
    int n = 20;
  
    // Using uppercase()
    cout << "uppercase flag: "
         << showbase << oct
         << uppercase
         << n << endl;
  
    return 0;
}

Output:
uppercase flag: 024

Example 2:




// C++ code to demonstrate
// the working of uppercase() function
  
#include <iostream>
  
using namespace std;
  
int main()
{
  
    // Initializing the int
    int n = 20;
  
    // Using uppercase()
    cout << "uppercase flag: "
         << showbase << hex
         << uppercase
         << n << endl;
  
    return 0;
}

Output:
uppercase flag: 0X14
