String someStr = "your name";

// but i wanna capitalize it
someStr.capitalize(); // <-- operation has no effect

// ughh, fine 😒
String cappedStr = someStr.capitalise();

// wish I could just do this:
someStr .= capitalize(); // but it throws error 😩

It's
someStr.title()

So
someStr = someStr.title()

Found a java function for making the first letter of the first word capital.

private String capitalize(final String line) {
return Character.toUpperCase(line.charAt(0)) + line.substring(1);
}

I learned that .title() "upper cases" a string in python.

Not for very long, just sort of dived into it. Love that there's a method for capitalizing names in one shot 😄
