Ascertains whether a given character is a decimal digit

 #include <ctype.h> int isdigit ( int c  ); 

The function isdigit( ) tests whether its character argument is a digit. The results depend on the current locale setting for the localization category LC_CTYPE, which you can query or change using the setlocale( ) function.

In the default locale C, isdigit( ) returns a nonzero value (that is, TRue) for the ten characters between '0' (not to be confused with the null character, '\0') and '9' inclusive. Otherwise, the function returns 0 (false).

Example

See the example for isprint( ) in this chapter.
