NAME
isupper —
upper-case character test
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include
<ctype.h>
int
isupper(int
c);
DESCRIPTION
The
isupper()
function tests for any upper-case letter. 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 (preceded by their numeric values, in octal):
| 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'' |
RETURN VALUES
The isupper() function returns zero if the
character tests false and returns 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 iswupper()
function should be used instead.
