At the command prompt:
>>> dir('')
# result edited for clarity
[ ... 'isalnum', 'isalpha', 'isdigit', 'islower',
'isspace', 'istitle', 'isupper', ... ]
Then do this:
>>> help(''.islower)
and read the text it provides. Then experiment on the command line:
>>> 'abcd1234'.islower()
True
>>> 'aBcd1234'.islower()
False
Then come back to us if they aren't suitable, and tell us WHY they aren't
suitable.
