iswalpha manual

iswalpha - test for alphabetic wide character

The iswalpha() function is the wide-character equivalent of the isal- pha(3) function. It tests whether wc is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class alpha.

The wide-character class alpha is a subclass of the wide-character class alnum, and therefore also a subclass of the wide-character class graph and of the wide-character class print.

Being a subclass of the wide-character class print, the wide-charac- ter class alpha is disjoint from the wide-character class cntrl.

Being a subclass of the wide-character class graph, the wide-charac- ter class alpha is disjoint from the wide-character class space and its subclass blank.

Being a subclass of the wide-character class alnum, the wide-charac- ter class alpha is disjoint from the wide-character class punct.

The wide-character class alpha is disjoint from the wide-character class digit.

The wide-character class alpha contains the wide-character classes upper and lower.

The wide-character class alpha always contains at least the letters A to Z and a to z.

Return Value

The iswalpha() function returns nonzero if wc is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class alpha.
Otherwise, it returns zero.

Notes

The behavior of iswalpha() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
