<cctype>

isupper

int isupper ( int c );
Check if character is uppercase letter
Checks if parameter c is an uppercase alphabetic letter.

Notice that what is considered a letter may depend on the locale being used; In the default "C" locale, an uppercase letter is any of: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z.

Other locales may consider a different selection of characters as uppercase characters, but never characters that returns true for iscntrl, isdigit, ispunct or isspace.

For a detailed chart on what the different ctype functions return for each character of the standard ANSII character set, see the reference for the <cctype> header.

In C++, a locale-specific template version of this function (isupper) exists in header <locale>.

Parameters

c
Character to be checked, casted to an int, or EOF.

Return Value

A value different from zero (i.e., true) if indeed c is an uppercase alphabetic letter. Zero (i.e., false) otherwise.
