ISALPHA(3)		   Linux Programmer's Manual		    ISALPHA(3)

NAME
       isalnum, isalpha, isascii, isblank, iscntrl, isdigit, isgraph, islower,
       isprint, ispunct, isspace, isupper, isxdigit - character classification
       routines

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);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       isascii():
	   _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE || _XOPEN_SOURCE
       isblank():
	   _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600 || _ISOC99_SOURCE ||
	   _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L;
	   or cc -std=c99

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 (isal‐
	      pha(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, that is, 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  nonzero  if	the character c falls into the
       tested class, and a zero value if not.

ATTRIBUTES
   Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
       The isalnum(), isalpha(), isascii(), isblank(),	iscntrl(),  isdigit(),
       isgraph(),  islower(),  isprint(), ispunct(), isspace(), isupper(), and
       isxdigit() functions are thread-safe.

CONFORMING TO
       C99, 4.3BSD.  C89 specifies all of these functions except isascii() and
       isblank().  isascii() is a BSD extension and is also an SVr4 extension.
       isblank() conforms to POSIX.1-2001 and C99 7.4.1.3.  POSIX.1-2008 marks
       isascii()  as  obsolete,	 noting	 that  it cannot be used portably in a
       localized application.

NOTES
       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.
