SYNOPSIS

#include <ctype.h>

int isalnum(int c);
int isalpha(int
c);
int isascii(int
c);
int isblank(int
c);
int iscntrl(int
c);
int isdigit(int
c);
int isgraph(int
c);
int islower(int
c);
int isprint(int
c);
int ispunct(int
c);
int isspace(int
c);
int isupper(int
c);
int isxdigit(int
c);

DESCRIPTION

These functions check whether c, which must have the value of an unsigned char or EOF, falls into a certain character class according to the current locale.
isalnum
()

checks for an alphanumeric character; it is equivalent to (isalpha(c) || isdigit(c)).

isalpha()

checks for an alphabetic character; in the standard "C" locale, it is equivalent to (isupper(c) || islower(c)). In some locales, there may be additional characters for which isalpha() is true—letters which are neither upper case nor lower case.

isascii()

checks whether c is a 7-bit unsigned char value that fits into the ASCII character set.

isblank()

checks for a blank character; that is, a space or a tab.

iscntrl()

checks for a control character.

isdigit()

checks for a digit (0 through 9).

isgraph()

checks for any printable character except space.

islower()

checks for a lower-case character.

isprint()

checks for any printable character including space.

ispunct()

checks for any printable character which is not a space or an alphanumeric character.

isspace()

checks for white-space characters. In the "C" and "POSIX" locales, these are: space, form-feed (’\f’), newline (’\n’), carriage return (’\r’), horizontal tab (’\t’), and vertical tab (’\v’).

isupper()

checks for an uppercase letter.

isxdigit()

checks for a hexadecimal digits, i.e. one of
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f A B C D E F
.

RETURN VALUE

The values returned are non-zero if the character c falls into the tested class, and a zero value if not.

CONFORMING TO

C99, 4.3BSD. isascii() is a BSD extension and is also an SVr4 extension. isblank() conforms to POSIX.1-2001 and C99 7.4.1.3.

NOTE

The details of what characters belong into which class depend on the current locale. For example, isupper() will not recognize an A-umlaut (Ä) as an uppercase letter in the default C locale.
