[Visualpython-users] what has happened to string.lower?

In python 2.etc there is a useful function: string.lower which converts a 
string into lower case. eg string.lower("ACE") returns 'ace'

in python 3.1 the string module no longer has any such function,

Please can anyone let me know if such a function exists in 3.1 and where it 
is to be found

Regards
