(0)  Let me guess:  this is for a class assignment, right?

(1)  Located somewhere on your keyboard, quite possibly to the
     immediate left of the 'A' key, is a key marked "Caps Lock"
     or something very similar.  Give it a quick little tap.
     You will notice that an LED somewhere else on the keyboard,
     quite possibly in the upper right corner but also sometimes
     located right on the Caps Lock key itself, goes off.  The
     operating condition where this LED is not illuminated is
     considered by most to be the optimum default state for the
     keyboard.  You will notice that when you type things with
     this LED off, an entirely different character set appears,
     one which you may not be familiar with.  This character set
     is called "lower case".  Normally, it is used for most
     communication, being punctuated only occasionally by upper
     case characters, frequently at the beginning of certain
     words.  The precise syntactical rules for when to use upper
     case letters are rather complex, and might be a subject for
     future study on your part if you are so inclined.  But at
     the very least, simply using all lower case rather than all
     upper case would be a good start and would contribute much
     to the legibility of your prose.
