Do anyone know why i got this error ? Do i have to import anything in order to use string.lower() & string.upper() ?
sentence = "how are you"
newS = string.lower(sentence)
NameError: name 'string' is not defined

Why i got this error ?
newS = sentence.lower()
AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'lower'

The only way I can recreate this error is to make variable sentence a tuple ...
#sentence = "HOW ARE YOU"
sentence = 'HOW', 'ARE', 'YOU'
newS = sentence.lower()
print newSAre you using an older version of Python?
