if e[0].isupper == False:
print ("False")
if e[0].isupper == True:
print ("True")
I am sure in the first , third and fifth choices should be true.
Right now, I am just testing the first letter of each word.
There's a difference between e[0].isupper which refers to the method
itself, and e[0].isupper() which then calls that method. Call the
method, and you should be good to go.

For the OP use the interactive prompt to see for yourself. Compare:-
>>> 'no'.isupper
<built-in method isupper of str object at 0x0000000003D14FB8>
>>> 'no'.isupper()
False
