I want to show the UILabel text "sunday" to uppercase "SUN" like that

Question

NSString *strDay = [dic objectForKey:@"day"]; 
NSString *uppercaseString = [strDay uppercaseString];
cell.dayLabel.text = uppercaseString;

Is that the correct method to get that? But I get only uppercase. I want "sunday" to be shown in view like "SUN".

Answer 1

How about just this

NSString *uppercaseString = [strDay uppercaseString];
cell.dayLabel.text = [uppercaseString substringToIndex:3];

Assuming it has a valid day

Answer 2

NSString *strDay = [dic objectForKey:@"day"]; 
NSString* split = [strDay substringToIndex:3];
split=[split uppercaseString];

NSLOG (@"%@",split);

Cheers!
