CTYPE(3C) COMMAND REFERENCE CTYPE(3C) NAME ctype, isalpha, isupper, islower, isdigit, isalnum, isspace, ispunct, isprint, iscntrl, isascii - character classification SYNOPSIS #include <ctype.h> isalpha(c) . . . DESCRIPTION These macros classify ASCII-coded integer values by table lookup. Each is a predicate returning nonzero for true, zero for false. Isascii is defined on all integer values; the rest are defined only where isascii is true and on the single non-ASCII value EOF (see stdio(3s)). isalpha c is a letter isupper c is an uppercase letter islower c is a lowercase letter isdigit c is a digit isalnum c is an alphanumeric character isspace c is a space, tab, carriage return, newline, or formfeed ispunct c is a punctuation character (neither control nor alphanumeric) isprint c is a printing character, code 040(8) (space) through 0176 (tilde) iscntrl c is a delete character (0177) or ordinary control character (less than 040, except for space, horizontal and vertical tab, space, linefeed, carriage return, and formfeed) isascii Printed 5/12/88 1
