+the functions with the "_l" suffix differ only in using the locale object +.I locale +instead of the current locale. +.TP +.BR isalnum () +checks for an alphanumeric character; it is equivalent to +.BI "(isalpha(" c ") || isdigit(" c "))" \fR. +.TP +.BR isalpha () +checks for an alphabetic character; in the standard \fB"C"\fP +locale, it is equivalent to +.BI "(isupper(" c ") || islower(" c "))" \fR. +In some locales, there may be additional characters for which +.BR isalpha () +is true\[em]letters which are neither uppercase nor lowercase. +.TP +.BR isascii () +checks whether \fIc\fP is a 7-bit +.I unsigned char +value that fits into +the ASCII character set. +.TP +.BR isblank () +checks for a blank character; that is, a space or a tab. +.TP +.BR iscntrl () +checks for a control character. +.TP +.BR isdigit () +checks for a digit (0 through 9). +.TP +.BR isgraph () +checks for any printable character except space. +.TP +.BR islower () +checks for a lowercase character. +.TP +.BR isprint () +checks for any printable character including space. +.TP +.BR ispunct () +checks for any printable character which is not a space or an +alphanumeric character. +.TP +.BR isspace () +checks for white-space characters. +In the +.B """C""" +and +.B """POSIX""" +locales, these are: space, form-feed +.RB ( \[aq]\ef\[aq] ), +newline +.RB ( \[aq]\en\[aq] ), +carriage return +.RB ( \[aq]\er\[aq] ), +horizontal tab +.RB ( \[aq]\et\[aq] ), +and vertical tab +.RB ( \[aq]\ev\[aq] ). +.TP +.BR isupper () +checks for an uppercase letter. +.TP +.BR isxdigit () +checks for hexadecimal digits, that is, one of +.br +.BR "0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f A B C D E F" . +.SH RETURN VALUE +The values returned are nonzero if the character +.I c +falls into the tested class, and zero if not. +.SH ATTRIBUTES +For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see +.BR attributes (7). +.TS +allbox;
