ISASCII(3)						   BSD Library Functions Manual 						ISASCII(3)

NAME
isascii -- test for ASCII character LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <ctype.h> int isascii(int c); DESCRIPTION
The isascii() function tests for an ASCII character, which is any character with a value in the range from 0 to 127, inclusive. The isascii() is defined on all integer values. SEE ALSO
ctype(3), isalnum(3), isalpha(3), isblank(3), iscntrl(3), isdigit(3), isgraph(3), islower(3), isprint(3), ispunct(3), isspace(3), isupper(3), isxdigit(3), stdio(3), toascii(3), tolower(3), toupper(3), ascii(7) STANDARDS
The isascii() function conforms to X/Open Portability Guide Issue 4 (``XPG4'') and IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1''). The IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (``POSIX.1'') revision however marked it as obsolete, noting that isascii() cannot be used portably in a localized application. BSD

NAME
digittoint, isalnum, isalpha, isascii, isblank, iscntrl, isdigit, isgraph, ishexnumber, isideogram, islower, isnumber, isphonogram, isprint, ispunct, isrune, isspace, isspecial, isupper, isxdigit, toascii, tolower, toupper -- character classification macros LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <ctype.h> int digittoint(int c); int isalnum(int c); int isalpha(int c); int isascii(int c); int iscntrl(int c); int isdigit(int c); int isgraph(int c); int ishexnumber(int c); int isideogram(int c); int islower(int c); int isnumber(int c); int isphonogram(int c); int isspecial(int c); int isprint(int c); int ispunct(int c); int isrune(int c); int isspace(int c); int isupper(int c); int isxdigit(int c); int toascii(int c); int tolower(int c); int toupper(int c); DESCRIPTION
The above functions perform character tests and conversions on the integer c. They are available as macros, defined in the include file <ctype.h>, or as true functions in the C library. See the specific manual pages for more information. Extended locale versions of these functions are documented in ctype_l(3). See xlocale(3) for more information. SEE ALSO
