Why did my string stay in small letters?

Short answer. toUpperCase() returns a new string; you must store it back.

What does immutable mean?

Once made, a string can never be changed.

Remember

Strings never change
Store the new string back

You called to upper case, but the string stayed small. Why? A String is an object, and it is immutable. Methods return a new string. Store it back in s. Two rules. Strings never change. Store the new string back.
