int isalnum(int ch); | ||
Checks if the given character is an alphanumeric character as classified by the current C locale. In the default locale, the following characters are alphanumeric:
0123456789),ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ),abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz).The behavior is undefined if the value ofch is not representable asunsignedchar and is not equal toEOF.

| ch | - | character to classify |
Non-zero value if the character is an alphanumeric character,0 otherwise.
Demonstrates the use ofisalnum with different locales (OS-specific).
#include <ctype.h>#include <locale.h>#include <stdio.h> int main(void){unsignedchar c='\xdf';// German letter ß in ISO-8859-1 printf("isalnum('\\xdf') in default C locale returned %d\n",!!isalnum(c)); if(setlocale(LC_CTYPE,"de_DE.iso88591"))printf("isalnum('\\xdf') in ISO-8859-1 locale returned %d\n",!!isalnum(c));}
Possible output:
isalnum('\xdf') in default C locale returned 0isalnum('\xdf') in ISO-8859-1 locale returned 1(C95) | checks if a wide character is alphanumeric (function)[edit] |
