Java Character toTitleCase(char ch) Method

Java toTitleCase(char ch) method is a part of Character class. This method converts the specified character argument to titlecase using case mapping information from the UnicodeData file.

It must be noted that if a character has no explicit titlecase mapping and is not itself a titlecase char according to UnicodeData, then the uppercase mapping is returned as an equivalent titlecase mapping. If the char argument is already a titlecase char, the same char value will be returned.

Syntax:

public static char toTitleCase(char ch)  

Parameters:

The parameter passed is the character value to be converted to titlecase.

Returns:

Returns the titlecase value of the specified character.

Example 1:

Here, the characters are converted into equivalent titlecase characters.

public class StudyTonight
{  
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{  
		char ch1 = 'F';  
		char ch2 = 'n';
		char ch3 = '1';

		char ch11 = Character.toTitleCase(ch1);  
		char ch22 = Character.toTitleCase(ch2);
		char ch33 = Character.toTitleCase(ch3);

        System.out.println("The titlecase character is : "+ch11);  
		System.out.println("The titlecase character is : "+ch22); 
		System.out.println("The titlecase character is : "+ch33); 
	}  
}


The titlecase character is : F
The titlecase character is : N
The titlecase character is : 1

Example 2:

Here is a user-defined example where anyone using this code can put a value of his choice and get the equivalent output.

import java.util.Scanner; 
public class StudyTonight
{  
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{  
		try
		{
			System.out.print("Enter the character: ");  
			Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);         
			char ch = sc.next().charAt(0);  
			char cc = Character.toTitleCase(ch);
			System.out.println("The titlecase character is : "+cc);
		}
		catch(Exception e)
		{
			System.out.println("Invalid Input!!");
		}
	}  
}


Enter the character: s
The titlecase character is : S
************************************
Enter the character: U
The titlecase character is : U
