return String.valueOf(Character.toUpperCase(first)) + input.substring(1);
Stringcapitalize(String input)
Capitalizes a string, converting the first character to uppercase. 
if (input.length() == 0)
    return input;
return input.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase() + input.substring(1);
Stringcapitalize(String input)
capitalize 
int length;
if (input == null || (length = input.length()) == 0) {
    return "";
} else if (length > 1) {
    return input.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase().concat(input.substring(1));
} else {
    return input.toUpperCase();
Stringcapitalize(String input)

char first = input.charAt(0);
char capitalized = Character.toUpperCase(first);
return first == capitalized ? input : capitalized + input.substring(1);
Stringcapitalize(String input)

if (input.length() == 0)
    return input;
char ch = input.charAt(0);
if (Character.isUpperCase(ch))

return String.valueOf(Character.toUpperCase(ch)) + input.substring(1);
Stringcapitalize(String inputString)
capitalize 
String cap = inputString.toLowerCase().substring(0, 1).toUpperCase();
cap += inputString.toLowerCase().substring(1);
return cap;
Stringcapitalize(String line)
capitalize 
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(line);
int size = line.length();
boolean changed = false;
char c;
int lastWordIdx = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
    i = indexOfNextWord(line, i, lastWordIdx);
    if (i < 0) {

Stringcapitalize(String membername)
This method capitalizes the first character in the provided string.

    return message;
StringBuilder buffer = new StringBuilder(message);
char first = buffer.charAt(0);
if (!Character.isUpperCase(first))
    buffer.setCharAt(0, Character.toUpperCase(first));
return buffer.toString();
...
