std::ispunct(3) C++ Standard Libary std::ispunct(3) NAME std::ispunct - std::ispunct Synopsis Defined in header <cctype> int ispunct( int ch ); Checks if the given character is a punctuation character as classified by the current C locale. The default C locale classifies the characters !"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^_`{|}~ as punctuation. The behavior is undefined if the value of ch is not representable as un- signed char and is not equal to EOF. Parameters ch - character to classify Return value Non-zero value if the character is a punctuation character, zero other- wise. Notes Like all other functions from <cctype>, the behavior of std::ispunct is undefined if the argument's value is neither representable as unsigned char nor equal to EOF. To use these functions safely with plain chars (or signed chars), the argu- ment should first be converted to unsigned char: bool my_ispunct(char ch) { return std::ispunct(static_cast<unsigned char>(ch)); } Similarly, they should not be directly used with standard algorithms when the iterator's value type is char or signed char. Instead, convert the value to unsigned char first: int count_puncts(const std::string& s) { return std::count_if(s.begin(), s.end(), // static_cast<int(*)(int)>(std::ispunct) // wrong // [](int c){ return std::ispunct(c); } // wrong // [](char c){ return std::ispunct(c); } // wrong [](unsigned char c){ return std::ispunct(c); } // correct ); } Example // Run this code #include <cctype> #include <clocale> #include <iostream> int main() { unsigned char c = '\xd7'; // the character A (multiplication sign) in ISO-8859-1 std::cout << "ispunct(\'\\xd7\', default C locale) returned " << std::boolalpha << (bool)std::ispunct(c) << '\n'; std::setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_GB.iso88591"); std::cout << "ispunct(\'\\xd7\', ISO-8859-1 locale) returned " << std::boolalpha << (bool)std::ispunct(c) << '\n'; } Possible output: ispunct('\xd7', default C locale) returned false ispunct('\xd7', ISO-8859-1 locale) returned true See also ispunct(std::locale) checks if a character is classified as punctuation by a locale (function template) iswpunct checks if a wide character is a punctuation charac- ter (function) C documentation for ispunct ASCII values characters iscntrl isprint isspace isblank isgraph ispunct isalnum isalpha isupper islower isdigit isxdigit decimal hexadecimal octal iswcntrl iswprint iswspace iswblank iswgraph iswpunct iswalnum iswalpha iswupper iswlower iswdigit iswxdigit 0a8 \x0a\x8 \0a\10 control codes a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 (NUL, etc.) 9 \x9 \11 tab (\t) a 0 0 a 0 a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 whitespaces 10a13 \xAa\xD \12a\15 (\n, \v, \f, a 0 0 a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 \r) 14a31 \xEa\x1F \16a\37 control codes a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 32 \x20 \40 space 0 a 0 a 0 a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 33a47 \x21a\x2F \41a\57 !"#$%&'()*+,-./ 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 48a57 \x30a\x39 \60a\71 0123456789 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 0 a 0 0 0 0 a 0 a 0 58a64 \x3Aa\x40 \72a\100 :;<=>?@ 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 65a70 \x41a\x46 \101a\106 ABCDEF 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 0 a 0 a 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 71a90 \x47a\x5A \107a\132 GHIJKLMNOP 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 0 a 0 a 0 a 0 0 0 0 QRSTUVWXYZ 91a96 \x5Ba\x60 \133a\140 [\]^_` 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 97a102 \x61a\x66 \141a\146 abcdef 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 0 a 0 a 0 0 a 0 0 a 0 103a122 \x67a\x7A \147a\172 ghijklmnop 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 0 a 0 a 0 0 a 0 0 0 qrstuvwxyz 123a126 \x7Ba\x7E \172a\176 {|}~ 0 a 0 0 0 a 0 a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 127 \x7F \177 backspace a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 character (DEL) http://cppreference.com 2024.06.10 std::ispunct(3)
