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

int
isupper(int c);

int

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.

These functions, except for digittoint(), isascii(), ishexnumber(), isideogram(), isnumber(), isphonogram(), isrune(), isspecial() and toascii(), conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 ("ISO C90").
