[Solved] it is possible to capitalize all sentences first letter of string?

Question

srt1 = "hey i am python developer. this is new job. for me it nice to meet you"

import re

a1 = re.sub(r"[.]",",",srt1)
print(a1)
a1 = re.split(r"^,",srt1)
print(a1)

# i'm trying to split sentence through <'.'> but split is not working ...
# if split will work , we can loop through each sentence[element] and apply capitalize() function
# and join all sentence with <'.'>

desired output :-
"Hey i am python developer. This is new job. For me it nice to meet you"

Answer 1

Yes, you can split first each sentences then use list comprehension to capitalize each sentence using str.capitalize() method.

str1 = "hey i am python developer. this is a new job. for me it nice to meet you"

print('. '.join([x.capitalize() for x in str1.split('. ')]))

Yeah, we can split it using the re module.

x = re.split(r"\. ", str1)

# Notice that we need to escape the dot (.) by backslash (\) if we want to match a literal dot.

Though for capitalization, we still need to use str.capitalize() method, as using re.split and split will output the same result, so they're just basically the same (except that re.split can use more advance regex pattern).
