Frequently Asked Java Program 25: Java Program to Convert a String Sentence in Camel Case
“CamelCase” is a naming convention in which words are joined together without any whitespace in between and each word starts with a capital letter which increase readability. It is mostly used to name variables and methods in programming languages.
Example: MakeSeleniumEasy
Problem Statement:
Input:
make selenium easy
Output:
MakeSeleniumEasy
Convert first character of each word into upper case and join without any whitespace.
Solution:
Logic:
- A sentence is a collection of words generally separated by a white space. We can extract words of given sentence using split method.
- Now extract first character of first word and check if it is not uppercase already. If it is not, convert first char to upper case and append remaining characters of word. we can use subString method. If it is already in uppercase, append entire word. Repeat the same for all words.

package StringPrograms; import java.util.Scanner; public class CamelCase { public static String convertToCamelCase(String sentence) { // Extract all words String words[] = sentence.split("\\s+"); // Creating an empty string of type StringBuilder so that modification of string is possible. StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(); // Iterating through words for (String word : words) { //Extracting first char char firstChar = word.charAt(0); // Checking if firstchar is not in upper case already if (!Character.isUpperCase(firstChar)) { // Convert first char into upper case and then append remaining characters of words. sb.append(Character.toUpperCase(firstChar)).append(word.substring(1)); } else sb.append(word.substring(0)); } // Converting StringBuilder to String. trim() is needed to trim last space appended. String result = sb.toString().trim(); return result; } public static void main(String[] args) { // User input for the string to know length Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Please enter the string to convert in to camel case:"); String userInput = sc.nextLine(); sc.close(); System.out.println("You entered: " + userInput); System.out.println("Output is :" + convertToCamelCase(userInput)); } } |
