#520 - Detect Capital

Problem Description

We define the usage of capitals in a word to be right when one of the following cases holds:

  • All letters in this word are capitals, like "USA".
  • All letters in this word are not capitals, like "leetcode".
  • Only the first letter in this word is capital, like "Google".

Given a string word, return true if the usage of capitals in it is right.

Solution

/**
 * @param {string} word
 * @return {boolean}
 */
var detectCapitalUse = function(word) {
  return /^[A-Z]?[a-z]+$|^[A-Z]+$/.test(word);
};
