I agree, using hip GStrings reads more nicely! Thanks for reading, man, and keep up the copasetic work with Groovy, baby!

You’re Soooooo Java!

return firstName.capitalize() + ” ” + lastName.capitalize()

return “${firstName.capitalize()} ${lastName.capitalize()}”

Only a little mistake here: I think "... calling isUpperCase to it ..." should read "... calling toUpperCase to it ...". Nice post! Only a little mistake here:

I think “… calling isUpperCase to it …” should read “… calling toUpperCase to it …”.
