.SH DESCRIPTION
These macros classify
.SM ASCII\c
-coded integer values
by table lookup.
Each is a predicate returning nonzero for true,
zero for false.
.I Isascii
is defined on all integer values; the rest
are defined only where
.I isascii
is true and on the single non-\c
.SM ASCII
value
.BR EOF ;
see
.IR fopen (2).
.TP "\w'isalnum 'u"
.I isalpha
.I c
is a letter, a\-z or A\-Z
.TP
.I isupper
.I c
is an upper case letter, A\-Z
.TP
.I islower
.I c
is a lower case letter, a\-z
.TP
.I isdigit
.I c
is a digit, 0\-9
.TP
.I isxdigit
.I c
is a hexadecimal digit, 0\-9 or a\-f or A\-F
.TP
.I isalnum
.I c
is an alphanumeric character, a\-z or A\-Z or 0\-9
.TP
.I isspace
.I c
is a space, horizontal tab, newline, vertical tab, formfeed, or carriage return
(0x20, 0x9, 0xA, 0xB, 0xC, 0xD)
.TP
.I ispunct
.I c
is a punctuation character
(one of
.L
!"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\e]^_`{|}~\fR)
.TP
.I isprint
.I c
is a printing character, 0x20 (space)
through 0x7E (tilde)
.TP
.I isgraph
.I c
is a visible printing character, 0x21 (exclamation) through 0x7E
(tilde)
.TP
.I iscntrl
.I c
is a delete character, 0x7F,
or ordinary control character, 0x0 through 0x1F
.TP
.I isascii
.I c
is an
.SM ASCII
character, 0x0 through 0x7F
.PP
.I Toascii
is not a classification macro;
it converts its argument to
.SM ASCII
range by
.IR and ing
with 0x7F.
.PP
If
.I c
is an upper case letter,
.I tolower
returns the lower case version of the character;
otherwise it returns the original character.
.I Toupper
is similar, returning the upper case version of a character
or the original character.
.I Tolower
and
.I toupper
are functions;
.I _tolower
and
.I _toupper
are corresponding macros which should only be used when it
is known that the argument is upper case or lower case, respectively.
