islower() Test for Lowercase (Macro)
#include <ctype.h>
int islower(c);
int c; Integer value to be tested
islower() tests whether 'c' is lowercase ('a' - 'z').
Returns: True (nonzero) if the integer satisfies the test
condition or false (zero) if it does not. The result
is undefined if 'c' is other than an ASCII character
or EOF.
Notes: islower() is a macro.
-------------------------------- Example ---------------------------------
The following statement tests whether the character read from a file
is lowercase.
#include <ctype.h>
#include <stdio.h> /* for fopen */
int ch;
FILE *stream;
main()
{
if ((stream = fopen("input.dat","r+"))!= NULL) {
while (!feof(stream)) {
if (islower(ch = getc(stream)));
/* process character */
}
}
}
