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.

SEE ALSO
     ctype(3), iswupper(3), multibyte(3), toupper(3), ascii(7), isalnuml

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