+/* The C Programming Language: 2nd Edition
+ *
+ * Exercise 7-1: Write a program that converts upper case to lower or lower
+ * case to upper, depending on the name it is invoked with, as found in
+ * `argv[0]`.
+ *
+ * Notes: This one is, strangely, very easy. The primary gotcha is in the
+ * argv[0] check. The simplest solution I came up with was to check argv[0]
+ * for *both* upper and lower. If for some reason they're both in the path,
+ * the one that occurred later in the string takes precedence, since it's
+ * most likely to be the name of the executable itself rather than the
+ * directory containing the binary.
+ *
+ * Edge cases, gotta love'em.
