NAME
isalpha - alphabetic character test
SYNOPSIS
#include <ctype.h>

isalpha(int c);
DESCRIPTION
The isalpha() function tests for any character for which isupper(3) or
islower(3) is true and for which none of iscntrl(3), isdigit(3),
ispunct(3), or isspace(3) is true. In the ``C'' locale, isalpha() re-
turns true only for the characters for which isupper(3) or islower(3) is
true.
RETURN VALUES
The isalpha() macro returns zero if the character tests false and returns
non-zero if the character tests true.
