> Missing uncapitalize method
> ---------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-7472
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7472
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: groovy-jdk
> Affects Versions: 2.4.3
> Reporter: Andres Almiray
> Assignee: Andres Almiray
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.4.8
>
>
> Groovy has had a `capitalize` method since 1.8.2 but it does not have the
> mirror opposite: `uncapitalize`. A few weeks ago I was working with string
> manipulations and was surprised by this omission.
> Based on
> http://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/groovy-jdk/java/lang/CharSequence.html#capitalize()
> the rules for uncapitalize should be as follows:
> {code}
> assert 'H'.uncapitalize() == 'h'
> assert 'Hello'.uncapitalize() == 'hello'
> assert 'Hello world'.uncapitalize() == 'hello world'
> assert 'Hello World'.uncapitalize() == 'hello World'
> assert 'hello world' ==
> 'Hello World'.split(' ').collect{ it.uncapitalize() }.join(' ')
> {code}
