ispunct - test for punctuation character

&pagelevel(4)&pagelevel

Syntax

#include <ctype.h>

int ispunct(int c);

Description ispunct() tests whether c is a punctuation character, i.e. not a control, alphanumeric, or

white-space character (see isspace).

In all cases, the argument c is an int, the value of which must be representable as an
unsigned char or must equal the value of the macro EOF. If the argument c has any other
value, the behavior is undefined.

Return val.

!= 0

0

Punctuation character

Not a punctuation character

Notes

ispunct() is implemented both as a function and as a macro. To generate a function call,
the definition of the macro name must be first undefined (#undef ispunct).

The behavior of ispunct() is determined by the class punct of the current locale. The
current locale is the C locale, unless it was explicitly changed using setlocale().
