You probably know how to do at least some of the work for this task, like:

  • define a function
  • show that the function takes an argument
  • give the parameter (that stands for the argument) a name
  • add the statement that will cause a value to be returned
  • determine how long a string is
  • compute what half of a value is
  • use a slice to get part of a string
  • convert a string to lower case
  • convert a string to upper case

At least give it a "good faith" try and do the parts that you can. Then post the code you have so far if you still need help with the rest.
