ISPRINT(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual ISPRINT(3)
NAME
isprint, isprint_l - printing character test (space character inclusive)
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <ctype.h>
int
isprint(int c);
int
isprint_l(int c, locale_t loc);
DESCRIPTION
The isprint() and isprint_l() functions test for any printing character,
including space (` '). The value of the argument must be representable
as an unsigned char or the value of EOF.
In the ASCII character set, this includes the following characters (with
their numeric values shown in octal):
040 sp 041 ``!'' 042 ``"'' 043 ``#'' 044 ``$''
045 ``%'' 046 ``&'' 047 ``''' 050 ``('' 051 ``)''
052 ``*'' 053 ``+'' 054 ``,'' 055 ``-'' 056 ``.''
057 ``/'' 060 ``0'' 061 ``1'' 062 ``2'' 063 ``3''
064 ``4'' 065 ``5'' 066 ``6'' 067 ``7'' 070 ``8''
071 ``9'' 072 ``:'' 073 ``;'' 074 ``<'' 075 ``=''
076 ``>'' 077 ``?'' 100 ``@'' 101 ``A'' 102 ``B''
103 ``C'' 104 ``D'' 105 ``E'' 106 ``F'' 107 ``G''
110 ``H'' 111 ``I'' 112 ``J'' 113 ``K'' 114 ``L''
115 ``M'' 116 ``N'' 117 ``O'' 120 ``P'' 121 ``Q''
122 ``R'' 123 ``S'' 124 ``T'' 125 ``U'' 126 ``V''
127 ``W'' 130 ``X'' 131 ``Y'' 132 ``Z'' 133 ``[''
134 ``\'' 135 ``]'' 136 ``^'' 137 ``_'' 140 ```''
141 ``a'' 142 ``b'' 143 ``c'' 144 ``d'' 145 ``e''
146 ``f'' 147 ``g'' 150 ``h'' 151 ``i'' 152 ``j''
153 ``k'' 154 ``l'' 155 ``m'' 156 ``n'' 157 ``o''
160 ``p'' 161 ``q'' 162 ``r'' 163 ``s'' 164 ``t''
165 ``u'' 166 ``v'' 167 ``w'' 170 ``x'' 171 ``y''
172 ``z'' 173 ``{'' 174 ``|'' 175 ``}'' 176 ``~''
The isprint_l() function takes an explicit locale argument, whereas the
isprint() function uses the current global or per-thread locale.
RETURN VALUES
The isprint() and isprint_l() functions return zero if the character
tests false and return non-zero if the character tests true.
COMPATIBILITY
The 4.4BSD extension of accepting arguments outside of the range of the
unsigned char type in locales with large character sets is considered
obsolete and may not be supported in future releases. The iswprint() or
iswprint_l() function should be used instead.
