You might think so, but while it might aid someone with poor sight to understand, extensive studies show that the font being read has a fairly profound effect on a reader, and all caps are 'harder' to read--or at least, to *take*--and really is fairly analogous to listening to shouting.

Upper case is the opposite of lowercase. As you can see the text I'm writing, some of the letters look larger than the others, this is because I'm appropriately switching to uppercase. Here's an example of uppercase: 'HELLO MY NAME IS JOHN' Here's an example of lowercase: 'hello my name is john'


Are c programes required to be typed in lowercase?

It's not a requirement, but it is highly recommended. All C keywords are in lowercase as are all standard library names and types. Uppercase names are conventionally used to denote macros since a macro is not C code (macro expansion is handled by the preprocessor so the compiler never sees them). User-defined types are conventionally given a leading capital to differentiate them from the standard library types. Programmers are free to adopt their own style of coding, however sticking to the established conventions and best practices is good etiquette.
