Python program to capitalize the first letter of every word in the file

Last Updated : 26 Nov, 2020

The following article contains programs to read a file and capitalize the first letter of every word in the file and print it as output. To capitalize the first letter we will use the title() function in python. The title function in python is the Python String Method which is used to convert the first character in each word to Uppercase and the remaining characters to Lowercase in the string and returns the new string.

Examples:

# Content of the file serves as input
Input: hello world
Output: Hello World

# Content of the file serves as input
Input: geeks for geeks
Output: Geeks For Geeks

Approach:

We will take the content of the file as input.
We will open the file and save its content by using the open() function in python.
Printing the content after altering it.

Input File:

Content of the gfg.txt file

Below is the Implementation.

# Python program to read a file and capitalize
# the first letter of every word in the file.
  
# A file named "gfg", will be opened with the 
# reading mode. 
file_gfg = open('gfg.txt', 'r')
  
# This will traverse through every line one by one
# in the file
for line in file_gfg:
      
    # This will convert the content
    # of that line with capitalized
    # first letter of every word
    output = line.title()
      
    # This will print the output
    print(output)
