Java Program to convert all words first letter to Caps or UpperCase:

[java]
package in.javadomain;

public class ChangeAllWordsCaps {

public static void main(String[] args) {
String input = “ngdeveloper.com –> Proud to be a programmer!”;
boolean isCaps = false;
StringBuffer strBuff = new StringBuffer(input);
int nav = 0;
while (nav < strBuff.length()) {
if (strBuff.charAt(nav) == ‘ ‘) {
isCaps = false;
} else if (!isCaps) {
strBuff.setCharAt(nav, Character.toUpperCase(strBuff.charAt(nav)));
isCaps = true;
}
nav++;
}
System.out.println(strBuff.toString());

}
}
[/java]

Output:

StringBuffer strBuff = new StringBuffer(input);
int nav = 0;
while (nav < strBuff.length()) {
if (strBuff.charAt(nav) == ‘ ‘) {
isCaps = false;
} else if (!isCaps) {
strBuff.setCharAt(nav, Character.toLowerCase(strBuff.charAt(nav)));
isCaps = true;
}
nav++;
}
System.out.println(strBuff.toString());

}
}

What we are doing here ?

We are checking the given string character by character and when the word fall next to empty space then we are converting to lower/upper case.
If you want to convert the words first letter to lower/upper after ,: then just give the same in the program this way,

 

[java]
if (strBuff.charAt(nav) == ‘,’) {
isCaps = false;
} else if (!isCaps && !Character.isWhitespace(strBuff.charAt(nav))) {
strBuff.setCharAt(nav, Character.toLowerCase(strBuff.charAt(nav)));
isCaps = true;
}
[/java]
