Capitalize a string
PythonStringPython Problem Overview
Does anyone know of a really simple way of capitalizing just the first letter of a string, regardless of the capitalization of the rest of the string?
For example:
asimpletest -> Asimpletest
aSimpleTest -> ASimpleTest
I would like to be able to do all string lengths as well.
Python Solutions
Solution 1 - Python
>>> b = "my name"
>>> b.capitalize()
'My name'
>>> b.title()
'My Name'
Solution 2 - Python
Solution 3 - Python
What about your_string.title()?
e.g. "banana".title() -> Banana
Solution 4 - Python
s = s[0].upper() + s[1:]
This should work with every string, except for the empty string (when s="").
Solution 5 - Python
this actually gives you a capitalized word, instead of just capitalizing the first letter
cApItAlIzE -> Capitalize
def capitalize(str):
return str[:1].upper() + str[1:].lower().......
Solution 6 - Python
for capitalize first word;
a="asimpletest"
print a.capitalize()
for make all the string uppercase use the following tip;
print a.upper()
this is the easy one i think.
Solution 7 - Python
You can use the str.capitalize() function to do that
In [1]: x = "hello"
In [2]: x.capitalize()
Out[2]: 'Hello'
Hope it helps.
Solution 8 - Python
Docs can be found here for string functions https://docs.python.org/2.6/library/string.html#string-functions<br> Below code capitializes first letter with space as a separtor
s="gf12 23sadasd"
print( string.capwords(s, ' ') )
> Gf12 23sadasd
Solution 9 - Python
str = str[:].upper()
this is the easiest way to do it in my opinion
