1. Using Character class isUpperCase() method

According to , the Character.isUpperCase() method can be used to determine if the specified character is an uppercase character.

The following are examples of uppercase characters:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
'\u00C0' '\u00C1' '\u00C2' '\u00C3' '\u00C4' '\u00C5' '\u00C6' '\u00C7'
'\u00C8' '\u00C9' '\u00CA' '\u00CB' '\u00CC' '\u00CD' '\u00CE' '\u00CF'
'\u00D0' '\u00D1' '\u00D2' '\u00D3' '\u00D4' '\u00D5' '\u00D6' '\u00D8'
'\u00D9' '\u00DA' '\u00DB' '\u00DC' '\u00DD' '\u00DE'

Note: Character.isUpperCase() method cannot handle .

Java Program

public class CheckCharacterUppercase {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        char ch = 'A';
        if(Character.isUpperCase(ch))
        {
            System.out.println("Given character is Uppercase");
        }
        else
        {
            System.out.println("Given character is NOT Uppercase");
        }
    }
}

Output:
Given character is Uppercase

That's all for today. Please mention in the comments if you know any other way of checking if a character is uppercase or not in Java.
