Defined in header
<ctype.h>
int ispunct( int ch );
Checks if the given character is a punctuation character in the current C locale. The default C locale classifies the characters !"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^_`{|}~
as punctuation.
The behavior is undefined if the value of ch is not representable as unsigned char and is not equal to EOF .
[edit] Parameters
ch
-
character to classify
[edit] Return value
Non-zero value if the character is a punctuation character, zero otherwise.
[edit] Example
Run this code
#include <ctype.h> #include <locale.h> #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { unsigned char c = '\xd7'; // the character ×ばつ (multiplication sign) in ISO-8859-1 printf ("In the default C locale, \\xd7 is %spunctuation\n", ispunct(c) ? "" : "not " ); setlocale (LC_ALL, "en_GB.iso88591"); printf ("In ISO-8859-1 locale, \\xd7 is %spunctuation\n", ispunct(c) ? "" : "not " ); }
Possible output:
In the default C locale, \xd7 is not punctuation In ISO-8859-1 locale, \xd7 is punctuation
