This is my code, is there a better way to do this:
def stringcases(input_string):
uppercase = input_string.upper()
lowercase = input_string.lower()
titlecased = input_string.title()
make_list = list(reversed(input_string))
reverses = "".join(make_list)
return uppercase, lowercase, titlecased, reverses

def stringcases(input_string):
return input_string.upper(), input_string.lower(), input_string.title(), input_string[::-1]
