3.72 isascii

Function

Check if a given character is in the ASCII (0..127) range.

Header

ctype.h

Declaration

int __fastcall__ isascii (int c);

Description

The function returns a non zero value if the given argument is in the range 0..127 (the range of valid ASCII characters) and zero if not.

Limits

• When compiling with -Os the function is actually a macro. The inline sequence generated by the macro will not work correctly for values outside the range 0..255. Note: The constant EOF is not part of this range. The non inline function may be accessed by #undef'ing the macro.
• When compiling without -Os, the function is only available as fastcall function, so it may only be used in presence of a prototype.
