<H2>NAME</H2>
iswalpha - test for alphabetic wide character
<A NAME="lbAC">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2>
<PRE>
<B>#include &lt;<A HREF="file:///usr/include/wctype.h">wctype.h</A>&gt;</B>
<B>int iswalpha(wint_t </B><I>wc</I><B>);</B>
</PRE>
<A NAME="lbAD">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
The
<B>iswalpha</B>()
function is the wide-character equivalent of the
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?3+isalpha">isalpha</A></B>(3)
function.
It tests whether
<I>wc</I>
is a wide character
belonging to the wide-character class &quot;alpha&quot;.
<P>
The wide-character class &quot;alpha&quot; is a subclass of the
wide-character class &quot;alnum&quot;,
and therefore also a subclass of the wide-character class &quot;graph&quot; and
of the wide-character class &quot;print&quot;.
<P>
Being a subclass of the wide-character class &quot;print&quot;,
the wide-character class
&quot;alpha&quot; is disjoint from the wide-character class &quot;cntrl&quot;.
<P>
Being a subclass of the wide-character class &quot;graph&quot;,
the wide-character class &quot;alpha&quot; is disjoint from
the wide-character class &quot;space&quot; and its subclass &quot;blank&quot;.
<P>
Being a subclass of the wide-character class &quot;alnum&quot;,
the wide-character class &quot;alpha&quot; is disjoint from the
wide-character class &quot;punct&quot;.
<P>
The wide-character class &quot;alpha&quot; is disjoint from the wide-character class
&quot;digit&quot;.
<P>
The wide-character class &quot;alpha&quot; contains the wide-character classes &quot;upper&quot;
and &quot;lower&quot;.
<P>
The wide-character class &quot;alpha&quot; always contains at least the
letters 'A' to 'Z' and 'a' to 'z'.
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2>
The
<B>iswalpha</B>()
function returns nonzero
if
<I>wc</I>
is a wide character
belonging to the wide-character class &quot;alpha&quot;.
Otherwise, it returns zero.
