40.Dt ISDIGIT 3
41.Os
42.Sh NAME
43.Nm isdigit, isnumber
44.Nd decimal-digit character test
45.Sh LIBRARY
46.Lb libc
47.Sh SYNOPSIS
48.In ctype.h
49.Ft int
50.Fn isdigit "int c"
51.Ft int
52.Fn isnumber "int c"
53.Sh DESCRIPTION
54The
55.Fn isdigit
56function tests for a decimal digit character.
57Regardless of locale, this includes the following characters only:
58.Pp
59.Bl -column \&``0''______ \&``0''______ \&``0''______ \&``0''______ \&``0''______
60.It "\&``0''\t``1''\t``2''\t``3''\t``4''"
61.It "\&``5''\t``6''\t``7''\t``8''\t``9''"
62.El
63.Pp
64The
65.Fn isnumber
66function behaves similarly to
67.Fn isdigit ,
68but may recognize additional characters, depending on the current locale
69setting.
70.Pp
71For single C
72.Va char Ns s
73locales (see
74.Xr multibyte 3 )
75the value of the argument is
76representable as an
77.Li unsigned char
78or the value of
79.Dv EOF .
80.Sh RETURN VALUES
81The
82.Fn isdigit
83and
84.Fn isnumber
85functions return zero if the character tests false and
86returns non-zero if the character tests true.
87.Sh COMPATIBILITY
88The
89.Bx 4.4
90extension of accepting arguments outside of the range of the
91.Vt "unsigned char"
92type in locales with large character sets is considered obsolete
93and may not be supported in future releases.
94The
95.Fn iswdigit
96function should be used instead.
97.Sh SEE ALSO
98.Xr ctype 3 ,
99.Xr iswdigit 3 ,
100.Xr multibyte 3 ,
101.Xr ascii 7
102.Sh STANDARDS
103The
104.Fn isdigit
105function conforms to
106.St -isoC .
107.Sh HISTORY
108The
109.Fn isnumber
110function appeared in
111.Bx 4.4 .
