fun String.capitalize(): String

Returns a copy of this string having its first letter titlecased using the rules of the default locale, or the original string if it's empty or already starts with a title case letter.

The title case of a character is usually the same as its upper case with several exceptions. The particular list of characters with the special title case form depends on the underlying platform.
