what is the way to convert just one letter of a string to uppercase? for eg: if i have a string "welcome" and i need the output "weLcome", how can i get it?

Since you can't modify a String, you'll need a StringBuffer or StringBuilder. And also look at the Character class.

You could use this:

public String toUpperCase(String input)

{

char[] array = input.toCharArray();

array[2] = Character.toUpperCase(array[2]);

input = new String(array);

return input;

}

The value 2 would be the position of the character which you would like to make upper case.
