下面是我一小步一小步完成的方法，类似于@Kirsteins。

func capitalizedPhrase(phrase:String) -> String {
    let firstCharIndex = advance(phrase.startIndex, 1)
    let firstChar = phrase.substringToIndex(firstCharIndex).uppercaseString
    let firstCharRange = phrase.startIndex..<firstCharIndex
    return phrase.stringByReplacingCharactersInRange(firstCharRange, withString: firstChar)
}

“Hello World”

nameOfString.capitalized

或“HELLO WORLD”

nameOfString.uppercased

字符串中的第一个字符大写

extension String {
    var capitalizeFirst: String {
        if self.characters.count == 0 {
            return self

        return String(self[self.startIndex]).capitalized + String(self.characters.dropFirst())
    }
}

我更喜欢这个版本，它是从另一个答案中清理出来的版本:

extension String {
  var capitalizedFirst: String {
    let characters = self.characters
    if let first = characters.first {
      return String(first).uppercased() + 
             String(characters.dropFirst())
    }
    return self
  }
}

它努力通过只评估自我来提高效率。字符一次，然后使用一致的形式创建子字符串。

string.capitalized(with: nil)

or

string.capitalized

但是，每个单词的首字母都要大写

苹果公司的文档:

A capitalized string is a string with the first character in each word changed to its corresponding uppercase value, and all remaining characters set to their corresponding lowercase values. A “word” is any sequence of characters delimited by spaces, tabs, or line terminators. Some common word delimiting punctuation isn’t considered, so this property may not generally produce the desired results for multiword strings. See the getLineStart(_:end:contentsEnd:for:) method for additional information.

Swift 3更新

replaceRange函数现在是replaceSubrange

nameOfString.replaceSubrange(nameOfString.startIndex...nameOfString.startIndex, with: String(nameOfString[nameOfString.startIndex]).capitalized)
