How do you capitalize the first word and every word after a period?

So far I'm able to capitalize the first word of the sentence, but I need every first letter after a period to be capitalized. This is what I have:

def main():
    input1 = input('Enter your input here: ')
    capitalize = str.capitalize(input1)
    print("The capitalized version:", capitalize)

main()

Just use .title() method of a string (either ASCII or Unicode is fine).

For your instance:

>>> 'Enter your input here: '.title()
'Enter Your Input Here: '

Use Sentence Case of the rename package.

>>> from tl.rename.case import transform_sentence_case
>>> transform_sentence_case(['foo bar baz', 'FOO bar. baz Asdf'])
['Foo bar baz', 'Foo bar. Baz asdf']

Or you could use a regex...

\.\s*([a-z])

Captialise the $1 capturing group.
