Thanks all ~
when I type this command "perldoc -f uc", then find this :
uc EXPR
uc
Returns an uppercased version of EXPR. This is the internal function
implementing the "\U"
escape in double-quoted strings. Respects current LC_CTYPE locale if "use
locale" in force.
See perllocale and perlunicode for more details about locale and Unicode
support. It does
not attempt to do titlecase mapping on initial letters. See "ucfirst"
for that
If EXPR is omitted, uses $_.
