java.lang.Character toTitleCase(char ch)
Description
The toTitleCase(char ch) method of Character class is static thus it should be accessed statically which means the we would be calling this method in this format:
Character.toTitleCase(char ch)
Non static method is usually called by just declaring method_name(argument) however in this case since the method is static, it should be called by appending the class name as suffix. We will be encountering a compilation problem if we call the java toTitleCase() method non statically.
