Line 61:
upper c -> c=translate(c) would help for other Rexxes (in particular ooRexx)
 
:: REXX version 1 was coded for classic REXX (not the object-oriented version of REXX, ooRexx), and the use of the   '''upper'''   statement is more intuitive when being read by people who don't know REXX that well, the   '''upper''' bif  BIF explains itself.   It also has uses that   '''translate'''   BIF doesn't have (or doesn't support),   but that discussion should be done elsewhere. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 22:01, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
 
:: Also, when uppercasing tens of thousands of lines,   the use of the   '''UPPER'''   statement is noticeably faster than the   '''TRANSLATE'''   BIF.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 22:59, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

::::: By the way, for quite a long time,   I couldn't get   (Rosetta Code's)   spellchecker to work.   I finally found where I had to turn it on (enable it),   so now I can catch typos and misspellings on-the-go, so to speak.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 22:59, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
