The following example converts each character in an array to its uppercase equivalent for the en-US culture, the invariant culture, and the tr-TR culture. In this example, the uppercase equivalent of each lowercase letter is identical for all cultures except for one case. The lowercase "i" character (U+0069) converts to "I" (U+0049) in the en-US and invariant cultures, but to "İ" (U+0130) in the tr-TR culture.
