Introduction: Python String title() Method

This method returns a string after converting the first letter of each word in a string to uppercase format.

Syntax of title() Method

string.title()

• Python string title method does not take any arguments.
• It returns a string after converting the first letter of every word to uppercase in a string.

Example 1: title() Method applied on a Python String

print('this is Python'.title())
print('this is 3_python'.title())
print('this is ^python'.title())
print('This Is Python'.title())
print('this is python'.title())

Output

This Is Python 
This Is 3_Python 
This Is ^Python 
This Is Python 
This Is Python

We can see in the second and third example that word ‘python’ comes after a number and some special characters but still its first letter is converted to uppercase format. It means the first letter that comes after the number/special characters will also get converted to uppercase format.

This is how Python string title method works. You can try it with even more examples to better understand the working of this method.

Example 2: Python String title() Method Return Value

val='this Is @ 3_$python ___programming'
returnedValue=val.title()
print(returnedValue)

Output

This Is @ 3_$Python ___Programming

We can see that Python string title method has returned a new string after converting the first letter of every word to uppercase format.
