ISLOWER(3)                NetBSD Programmer's Manual                ISLOWER(3)


NAME

     islower - lower-case character test


LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)


SYNOPSIS

     #include <ctype.h>

     int
     islower(int c);


DESCRIPTION

     The islower() function tests for any lower-case letter for which none of
     iscntrl(3), isdigit(3), ispunct(3), or isspace(3) is true.  In the ``C''
     locale, islower() returns true only for the characters defined as lower-
     case letters.


RETURN VALUES

     The islower() macro returns zero if the character tests false and returns
     non-zero if the character tests true.

STANDARDS
