Describe

Implement Capitalize<T> which converts the first letter of a string to uppercase and leave the rest as-is.

For example

code snippetCopytypescript
type capitalized = Capitalize<'hello world'> // expected to be 'Hello world'

Test Cases

code snippetCopytypescript
import { Equal, Expect } from '@type-challenges/utils' type cases = [ Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'foobar'>, 'Foobar'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'FOOBAR'>, 'FOOBAR'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'foo bar'>, 'Foo bar'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<''>, ''>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'a'>, 'A'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'b'>, 'B'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'c'>, 'C'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'d'>, 'D'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'e'>, 'E'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'f'>, 'F'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'g'>, 'G'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'h'>, 'H'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'i'>, 'I'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'j'>, 'J'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'k'>, 'K'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'l'>, 'L'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'m'>, 'M'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'n'>, 'N'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'o'>, 'O'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'p'>, 'P'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'q'>, 'Q'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'r'>, 'R'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'s'>, 'S'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'t'>, 'T'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'u'>, 'U'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'v'>, 'V'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'w'>, 'W'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'x'>, 'X'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'y'>, 'Y'>>, Expect<Equal<MyCapitalize<'z'>, 'Z'>>, ]

Solution

code snippetCopytypescript
type MyCapitalize<S extends string> = S extends `${infer P}${infer K}` ? `${Uppercase<P>}${K}` : S
