Thank you for your hint.
This is my solution:
f = open('test', 'r')
for line in f:
print line[0].upper()+line[1:],
Will your program handle empty lines of input correctly?
It will when the final line is changed to:
print line[:1].upper()+line[1:]
'line' will _never_ be ''. If a line ends with a newline then that will
be preserved returned as part of the string. This applies to the 'file'
methods 'readline', 'readlines', etc, and the iterator, which returns a
line. 'readline' will return '' only when it has reached the end of the
file.
Sorry -- habit. I tend to use that technique to avoid IndexErrors as a
matter of course.
