In C#, the System.String class contains methods ToUpper and ToLower which convert the case of the string to UPPERCASE and lowercase respectively.
But the String class does not have an appropriate method to convert text to TitleCase.

No need to worry, the TextInfo class provides this method! :)

Here is how you achieve TitleCase:

TextInfo myTextInfo = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.TextInfo;

string sampleStr = "this IS a sample text";
string titleStr = myTextInfo.ToTitleCase(sampleStr);
Console.WriteLine(titleStr);


The above code snippet will print the following:

This Is A Sample Text
