Q1. How can we check if a particular character is upper case in Java ?

^{2017-07-29 09:58:48}

Ans. 1. We can compare the ascii value of the character. Ascii for Capital case character is from 65 to 90.

2. We can compare to see if lowerCase of the character is not equal to character itself.

For example -

if character is 'a' the following code

new StringBuilder(char).toString().toLowerCase().equals(new StringBuilder(char)

will return true and hence char is lower case

if character is 'A' the following code

new StringBuilder(char).toString().toLowerCase().equals(new StringBuilder(char)

will return false and hence char is upper case
