Description
The isprint() function tests for any printing character, including the space character, that is, any character for which
programming c:function isalnum or
programming c:function ispunct is true or the space character.
The behavior of the isprint() function is affected by the current locale. To modify the behavior, change the LC_CTYPE category in setlocale(), that is, setlocale(LC_CTYPE, newlocale). In the C locale or in a locale where character type information is not defined, characters are classified according to the rules of the U.S. ASCII 7-bit coded character set.
Parameters
- c
Is an integer whose value is representable as an unsigned char, or the value of the macro EOF.
Return Values
The isprint() function returns non-zero for true and zero for false. If the parameter is not in the domain of the function, the return result is undefined.
