lcfirst

The lcfirst() function returns a string, with the first character in lower case - only if the first character is alphabetic.

PHP
```
echo lcfirst("Java is OK.");
=> // java is OK.
```
Ruby
```
my_string = "Java is OK.";
 
puts my_string[0,1].downcase + my_string[1..-1];
=> # java is OK.
```
PHP, Ruby capitalize, case, downcase, lcfirst, lower case, strings
