Gabriel Arazas aea7015cd5 Update the files for convention
Apparently, the convention (at least starting from 2018) is to make the
keywords and block names to be in lowercase as stated from one of the
following discussions at
https://orgmode.org/list/87tuuw3n15.fsf@nicolasgoaziou.fr/.

The files was updated with a one liner of shell. However, this is Emacs
and org-mode does have an API to let you do stuff in your config and
interact with the documents internally so it is not an elegant solution
in any way.

Just as a sorcerer needs spells, a programmer needs code to do its bidding.
Simple processes such as designing models with computer-aided design programs and controlling a robot arm in a factory are possible through expressing in code.
In order to study the idea of how code works, we need to study the idea of computational processes.
Programming mainly need two things: *processes* which is a set of instructions and *data* which is the object being manipulated for various purposes.
However, as one may dig into the rabbithole, they find that the hard line of separation between processes and data is a myth and unlocks more possibilities to solve problems.
