Determines whether an integer represents a decimal-digit character.

Syntax

int isdigit(   
   int c   
);  
int iswdigit(   
   wint_t c   
);  
int _isdigit_l(   
   int c,  
   _locale_t locale  
);  
int _iswdigit_l(   
   wint_t c,  
   _locale_t locale  
);  

Parameters

c
Integer to test.

locale
The locale to use.

Return Value

Each of these routines returns nonzero if c is a particular representation of a decimal-digit character. isdigit returns a nonzero value if c is a decimal digit (0 – 9). iswdigit returns a nonzero value if c is a wide character that corresponds to a decimal-digit character. Each of these routines returns 0 if c does not satisfy the test condition.

The versions of these functions that have the _l suffix use the locale that's passed in instead of the current locale for their locale-dependent behavior. For more information, see Locale.

The behavior of isdigit and _isdigit_l is undefined if c is not EOF or in the range 0 through 0xFF, inclusive. When a debug CRT library is used and c is not one of these values, the functions raise an assertion.
