  It's tricky, but that's why nearly all of the time, you should use standard libraries. E.g., in Python, ".upper()" and ".capitalize()" does the work for you.

    Does it have titleize() ?
    • ks2048 2y ago
      That is capitalize() There's a note in the docs [0], Changed in version 3.8: The first character is now put into titlecase rather than uppercase. This means that characters like digraphs will only have their first letter capitalized, instead of the full character.

EDIT: As the other reply says, ".title()" is probably a better answer to your question. Warning as the docs show [1], this splits things on sequence of letters, not whitespace! >>> "they're bill's friends from the UK".title() "They'Re Bill'S Friends From The Uk" [1] https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str.title https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str.title

      It's `.title()`, but note that it doesn't follow language-specific semantic rules like not capitalizing "the" and "of".
