header

Character handling functions

This header declares a set of functions to classify and transform individual characters.

All these functions take as parameter the int equivalent of one character and return an int, that can either be another character or a value representing a boolean value: an int value of 0 means false, and an int value different from 0 represents true.

There are two sets of functions:

First a set of classifying functions that check whether the character passed as parameter belongs to a certain category. These are:

函数名称	返回值
isalnum()	如果参数是字母数字, 即字母或数字, 该函数返回 true
isalpha()	如果参数是字母, 该函数返回 true
isblank()	如果参数是空格或水平制表符, 该函数返回 true
iscntrl()	如果参数是控制字符, 该函数返回 true
isdigit()	如果参数是数字 (0~9), 该函数返回 true
isgraph()	如果参数是除空格之外的打印字符, 该函数返回 true
isprint()	如果参数是打印字符 (包括空格), 该函数返回 true
ispunct()	如果参数是标点符号, 该函数返回 true
isspace()	如果参数是标准空白字符, 如空格、进纸、换行符、回车、水平制表符或垂直制表符, 该函数返回 true
islower()	如果参数是小写字母, 该函数返回 true
isupper()	如果参数是大写字母, 该函数返回 true
isxidgit()	如果参数是十六进制的数字, 即 0~9, a~f 或 A~F, 该函数返回 true

And secondly, two functions to convert between letter cases:

tolower

Convert uppercase letter to lowercase (function)

toupper

Convert lowercase letter to uppercase (function)

For the first set, here is a map of how the original 127-character ASCII set is considered by each function (an x indicates that the function returns true on that character)

ASCII values	characters	iscntrl	isspace	isupper	islower	isalpha	isdigit	isxdigit	isalnum	ispunct	isgraph	isprint
0x00 .. 0x08	NUL, (other control codes)	x
0x09 .. 0x0D	(white-space control codes: '/t','/f','/v','/n','/r')	x	x
0x0E .. 0x1F	(other control codes)	x
0x20	space (' ')		x									x
0x21 .. 0x2F	!"#$%&'()*+,-./									x	x	x
0x30 .. 0x39	01234567890						x	x	x		x	x
0x3a .. 0x40	:;<=>?@									x	x	x
0x41 .. 0x46	ABCDEF			x		x		x	x		x	x
0x47 .. 0x5A	GHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ			x		x			x		x	x
0x5B .. 0x60	[/]^_`									x	x	x
0x61 .. 0x66	abcdef				x	x		x	x		x	x
0x67 .. 0x7A	ghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz				x	x			x		x	x
0x7B .. 0x7E	{|}~									x	x	x
0x7F	(DEL)	x

The characters in the extended character set (above 0x7F) may belong to diverse categories depending on the locale and the platform. As a general rule, ispunct, isgraph and isprint return true on these for the standard C locale on most platforms supporting extended character sets.
