Convert The First Letter Of Every Word In A String To Uppercase?

Sep 20, 2014

I'm trying to convert the first letter of every word in a String to uppercase. I've managed to isolate the first letter of every word and then make it uppercase but I don't know how to replace it.

public static StringBuffer makeUpperCase(){
String str = String.valueOf(input2);
for(int i = 0; i < str.length(); i++){
if(str.charAt(i) == ' '){
char var = str.charAt(i + 1);
var = Character.toUpperCase(var);
System.out.println(var);
}
}

Capitalize Method - Return String With First Letter In Uppercase And All Other In Lowercase

May 19, 2015

I'm trying to create a private method called capitalize() which takes String nameModel in any uppercase/lowercase combination and returns it with the first letter uppercased and all other lowercased. E.g. "stePHeN" returns "Stephen" . This is what I've written so far:

private String makePrettyString(String modelName) {
if (modelName ==null) {
return null;
}else if (modelName =="") {
return "";
} else{
return modelName.substring(0,1).toUpperCase() + modelName.substring(1).toLowerCase();
}
}

Unfortunately it doesn't work and it still returning me the String modelName in its original uppercase/lowercase combination.

String Of Words - Getting First Letter From Each Word?

Mar 26, 2014

If I have a string of words and want to get a letter from each word (let's say the first), how do I code for anything past two?

For example, if I have North Atlantic Treaty Organization and I want to convert it to NATO I would do something like:

charAt(0) for N
charAt(x + 1) for A

But what do I do for anything past the second string? If I do charAt(x ++ 1) I get an error.

The code is supposed to output a word from a sentence(from a sample file) with most frequently occurring letter in that word.

Hangman Type Game - How Many Times Each Guessed Letter Occurs Within The Word

Jul 31, 2014

The game runs fine, however I have to include how many times each letter that is guessed occurs within the word. For example, if the guess is e, the program should print out: The character e occurs in 3 positions. How would I go about doing this??

Binary Tree - Storing Each Word As String And Int Frequency For Each Time Word Occurs

Apr 27, 2015

I have built a binary tree, from a file. In each node, I am storing each word as a string, and an int frequency for each time the word occurs. For the assignment, I need to find how many words occur only once in the file. I wrote the program, but for some reason I am getting a number different from what my professor is expecting.

As far as I know, this file has loaded into the tree correctly, because all of my other answers in the assignment are correct. What am I doing wrong?

public void findUnique() {
System.out.println("There are " + findUniqueWords(root, 0) + " unique words.");
}
private int findUniqueWords(Node subTree, int uniqueCount) {
// Base Case: At the end of the branch
if(subTree == null){
return uniqueCount;

Uppercase Character Counter In A String

Jun 11, 2014

I have to create a code that can calculate the number of upper case letters in a string that is entered by the user (below.)

Java Code:

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class mainClass {
public static void main (String [] args) {
String userInput;
userInput = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a string.");

[Code] ....

My issue is that I would like the program to be able to function properly when spaces are entered into the string. As it is right now, I believe it is only processing the first string entered into the input box.

How To Find Multiple Instances Of Same Letter In A Single String

I have got a pretty good framework working for my hangman game so far, however I am quite stumped on how to find multiple instances of the same letter in a single string.

Strings - Change Every Capital Letter Into Small Letter And Vise Versa

Oct 22, 2014

I have a problem with functions connected to strings.

I have a random String, e.g. "Hello World!" and I have to change every capital Letter into a small letter and vise versa. This alone would be fairly simple, but I have to do it with two other strings.

lowercase= "abcde...z" and

uppercase="ABCDE...Z". Every small letter stands at the very same position as the capital letter, but in the other string.

There should be a letter for letter search in lowercase and uppercase for the letters of "Hello World".

How I could solve the task, however I need a way to search the first string, here "Hello World", according to position. A statement which does: "Give me the letter of position x". This found letter should be able to be stored in a variable or else be able to be used by another statement. And it should be compatible with a for lope.

How To Convert Numeric String To Formatted String

Sep 11, 2014

I have a string value returned from a background tool that will range from 0 to possibly terabytes as a full number.  I want to format that number to use commas and to reduce the character count using an appropriate size modifier (KiB, MiB, GiB, etc).  I've tried converting the string number to a Double value using Double.parseDouble() and then performing the math based on the size of the value with this code:
 
Double dblConversionSize;
String stCinvertedSize;
dblConversionSize = Double.parseDouble(theValue);
if (dblConversionSize > (1024 * 1024 * 1024))
     stConvertedSize = String.format("%,.000d", dblConversionSize / 1024 / 1024 / 1024) + " TiB";
...
 
I've also tried using
 
     String.valueOf(dblConversionSize / 1024 / 1024 / 1024) + " TiB";
 
However, the formatting is failing and I'm either getting a format exception or the result is displayed as a number with no decimal component.

Cannot Convert From String To Boolean And Int To String

Apr 6, 2014

I have errors in the "if" and both "else if" ... The compiler says "cannot convert from String to boolean and int to String ...

instructions:

1. Add two private instance variables, String courseName and char grade to this class.

2. Add accessor and mutator methods for these instance variables.

3. Add a method register which receives an integer data type and returns String data type according to the argument passed to it ("Math" for 1, "English" for 2, "No course" for any other input)

What I have so far:

package assignment9;
 public class BannerUser
{
private int userId;

{
return this.userId;

public void setUserId(int userId)

Capitalize Second Word Of A String

Feb 16, 2014

So the exercise I'm working on says to have the user enter their name and the program will output their name with the last name in all caps. i made it work BUT the only way i could figure it out was to ask for the first and last names separately creating two strings rather than one.

Of course I want to make it work how it's supposed to (with one string) so that I'm learning. I'm just having trouble conceptualizing how exactly (with varying lengths of names) to tell the program to only capitalize the second word... at first I thought create a substring beginning with the first letter of the last name and ending with the last...but again, therein lies the issue of varying name lengths.

is there a way to create a substring that beginIndex's at the first "space"? then i could just leave the endIndex parameter empty and it would take the whole word into a new string. and from there utilize toUpperCase to the new string?

Here's my code asking for the first and last names separately.

import java.util.Scanner;
class nameEcho {
public static void main ( String [] args ) {
Scanner scan = new Scanner( System.in );
String first;
String last;
