Convert a string to uppercase:
```
julia> uppercase("julia programming")
"JULIA PROGRAMMING"
```
This example converts the given string to uppercase.
Handle empty strings:

""
```
It correctly handles the case when an empty string is provided as input.
Convert individual words to uppercase in a sentence:
```
julia> sentence = "the quick brown fox"
julia> words = split(sentence)
julia> uppercase.(words)
4-element Array{String,1}:
"THE"

"BROWN"
"FOX"
```
