python常用单词的缩写,是否有一种字符串方法可在python中将首字母缩写大写？

This is good:

import string

string.capwords("proper name")

'Proper Name'

This is not so good:

string.capwords("I.R.S")

'I.r.s'

Is there no string method to do capwords so that it accomodates acronyms?

解决方案

This might work:

import re

def _callback(match):

""" This is a simple callback function for the regular expression which is

in charge of doing the actual capitalization. It is designed to only

capitalize words which aren't fully uppercased (like acronyms).

"""

word = match.group(0)

if word == word.upper():

return word

else:

return word.capitalize()

def capwords(data):

""" This function converts `data` into a capitalized version of itself. This

function accomidates acronyms.

"""

return re.sub("[\w\'\-\_]+", _callback, data)

Here is a test:

print capwords("This is an IRS test.") # Produces: "This Is An IRS Test."

print capwords("This is an I.R.S. test.") # Produces: "This Is An I.R.S. Test."
