Converting a char to uppercase

Question

String lower = Name.toLowerCase();

String first = lower.substring(0, a);
String last = lower.substring(a+1);
char f = first.charAt(0);         


        

Answer 1

If you are including the apache commons lang jar in your project than the easiest solution would be to do:

WordUtils.capitalize(Name)

takes care of all the dirty work for you. See the javadoc here

Alternatively, you also have a capitalizeFully(String) method which also lower cases the rest of the characters.
