Hi there, I'm studying Python at the moment and I'm a little stuck on the question that says to look up documentation on the str class's upper method, I'd use help (....),any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks David Lassen-Diesen

You need to use dot notation to look up information on a specific method in a class using help(). So it would be something like help(classname.methodname)

In this case str is the class name and upper is the method name
