ISALPHA(3)                 BSD Programmer's Manual                  ISALPHA(3)

NAME

     isalpha - alphabetic character test

SYNOPSIS

     #include <ctype.h>

     int
     isalpha(int c);

DESCRIPTION

     The isalpha() function tests for any character for which isupper(3) or
     islower(3) is true and for which none of iscntrl(3), isdigit(3),
     ispunct(3), or isspace(3) is true. In the C locale, isalpha() returns
     true only for the characters for which isupper(3) or islower(3) is true.

RETURN VALUES

     The isalpha() macro returns zero if the character tests false or non-zero
     if the character tests true.

SEE ALSO

     isalnum(3), isascii(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 isalpha() function conforms to ANSI X3.159-1989 ("ANSI C89").

CAVEATS

     The argument to isalpha() must be EOF or representable as an unsigned
     char; otherwise, the result is undefined.
