SYNOPSIS #include int isalpha(int c); int isupper(int c); int islower(int c); int isdigit(int c); int isxdigit(int c); int isalnum(int c); int isspace(int c); int ispunct(int c); int isprint(int c); int isgraph(int c); int iscntrl(int c); int isascii(int c); DESCRIPTION These macros classify character-coded integer values. Each is a predicate returning non-zero for true, 0 for false. The behavior of these macros, except isascii(), is affected by the current locale (see setlocale(3C)). To modify the behavior, change the LC_TYPE category in setlocale(), that is, setlocale(LC_CTYPE, newlocale). In the "C" locale, or in a locale where character type information is not defined, characters are classified according to the rules of the US- ASCII 7-bit coded character set. isspace() Tests for any space, tab, carriage-return, newline, vertical-tab or form-feed (standard white-space char- acters) or for one of the current locale-defined set of characters for which isalnum() is false. In the C locale, isspace() returns true only for the standard white-space characters.
