Character classification macro.

Defined in header <ctype.h>

Syntax

#include <ctype.h>
int isgraph(int c);

Portability

DOSUNIXWindowsANSI CC++ only
■■■■

Remarks

isgraphi is a macro that classifies ASCII-coded integer values by table lookup. It is a predicate returning nonzero for true and 0 for false. It is defined only when isascli(c) is true or c is EOF.

You can make this macro available as a function by undefining (#undef) it.

Return value

isgraph returns nonzero if c is a printing character, like isprint, except that a space character is excluded.

Example

#include <ctype.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
   char c = 'C';
   if (isgraph(c))
      printf("%c is a graphic character\n",c) ;
   else
      printf("%c isn't a graphic character\n",c) ;

   return 0;
