Thread: Extracting letters as variables

I am making a program where the user enters a country and the population onto one line and then it will display the country and the population in one line and I have got that part to work

I need to extract the name of the country and the population in millions as variables and then have the program change the variables so the first letter of the country will be a capital letter and the population in millions as the display output. like if I put in canada 32, the display will show Canada 32milion
I know I have to use indexof and substring methods but I have no idea where to start, any help would be appreciated

I was able to extract the letters but I have to make it so that the first letter of each of some of the words are capitals there is the .uppercase that converts the whole word into capitals but I cant find a way to make the first letter a capital is there any way to do this

I would have a look at the API docs for String here. I've done this with substring and replaceFirst as a quick job but you might be able to find a better way.
