ISUPER(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ISUPER(3)
NAME
isupper -- upper-case character test
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
##include <>
int
isupper(int c);
DESCRIPTION
The isupper() function tests for any upper-case letter. For single C
chars locales (see multibyte(3)) the value of the argument is repre-
sentable as an unsigned char or the value of EOF. In the ASCI character
set, this includes the following characters (with their numeric values
shown in octal):
101 ``A'' 102 ``B'' 103 ``C'' 104 ``D'' 105 ``E''
106 ``F'' 107 ``G'' 110 ``H'' 111 ``I'' 112 ``J''
113 ``K'' 114 ``L'' 115 ``M'' 116 ``N'' 117 ``O''
120 ``P'' 121 ``Q'' 122 ``R'' 123 ``S'' 124 ``T''
125 ``U'' 126 ``V'' 127 ``W'' 130 ``X'' 131 ``Y''
132 ``Z''
RETURN VALUES
The isupper() function returns zero if the character tests false and
returns non-zero if the character tests true.
COMPATIBILITY
The 4.4BSD extension of accepting arguments outside of the range of the
unsigned char type in locales with large character sets is considered
obsolete and may not be supported in future releases. The iswupper()
function should be used instead.

STANDARDS
The isupper() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90'').
