        public static String capitalize​(String s)
        Returns a string that is equivalent to the specified string with its first character converted to uppercase as by String.toUpperCase(java.util.Locale).

            capitalize("2b or not 2b").equals("2b or not 2b")
            capitalize("Foo bar").equals("Foo bar");
            capitalize("").equals("");
         
        Parameters:
        s - the string whose first character is to be uppercased
        Returns:
        a string equivalent to s with its first character converted to uppercase
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if s is null
