- Case — Optionally change the case of the output to uppercase or lowercase. If left blank the result will be returned in the original case.
- uppercase, upper, or u — Converts to uppercase, parameter is NOT case sensitive.
- lowercase, lower, or l — Converts to lowercase, parameter is NOT case sensitive.
