test = "AltERNating"

def to_alternating_case(string):
    words = list(string)
    for word in words:
        if word.isupper() == True:
            return word.lower()
        else:
            return word.upper()  

print to_alternating_case(test)

Answer 1

If you want to invert the case of that string, try this:

>>> 'AltERNating'.swapcase()
'aLTernATING'
