fn to_upper(x: StringSexp) -> savvy::Result<savvy::Sexp> {
    // Use `Owned{type}Sexp` to allocate an R vector for output.
    let mut out = OwnedStringSexp::new(x.len())?;

    for (i, e) in x.iter().enumerate() {
        // To Rust, missing value is an ordinary value. In `&str`'s case, it's just "NA".
        // You have to use `.is_na()` method to distinguish the missing value.
        if e.is_na() {
            // Set the i-th element to NA
            out.set_na(i)?;
            continue;
        }

        let e_upper = e.to_uppercase();
        out.set_elt(i, e_upper.as_str())?;
