--description--

Given a string title, return a new string formatted in title case using the following rules:

  • Capitalize the first letter of each word.
  • Make all other letters in each word lowercase.
  • Words are always separated by a single space.

--hints--

title_case("hello world") should return "Hello World".

js
({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertEqual(title_case("hello world"), "Hello World")`)
}})

title_case("the quick brown fox") should return "The Quick Brown Fox".

js
({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertEqual(title_case("the quick brown fox"), "The Quick Brown Fox")`)
}})

title_case("JAVASCRIPT AND PYTHON") should return "Javascript And Python".

js
({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertEqual(title_case("JAVASCRIPT AND PYTHON"), "Javascript And Python")`)
}})

title_case("AvOcAdO tOAst fOr brEAkfAst") should return "Avocado Toast For Breakfast".

js
({test: () => { runPython(`
from unittest import TestCase
TestCase().assertEqual(title_case("AvOcAdO tOAst fOr brEAkfAst"), "Avocado Toast For Breakfast")`)
}})
