In Python, the capitalize() method converts first character of a string to uppercase letter and lowercases all other characters, if any.
The syntax of capitalize() is:
string.capitalize()
1. capitalize() Parameter
The capitalize()function doesn’t take any parameter.
2. Return Value from capitalize()
The capitalize() function returns a string with the first letter capitalized and all other characters lowercased. It doesn’t modify the original string.
3. Example 1: Capitalize a Sentence
string = "python is AWesome."
capitalized_string = string.capitalize()
print('Old String: ', string)
print('Capitalized String:', capitalized_string)
Output
Old String: python is AWesome Capitalized String: Python is awesome
4. Example 2: Non-alphabetic First Character
string = "+ is an operator."
new_string = string.capitalize()
print('Old String:', string)
print('New String:', new_string)
Output
Old String: + is an operator. New String: + is an operator.
