std::iswalpha

Defined in header <cwctype> 
int iswalpha( std::wint_t ch );

Checks if the given wide character is an alphabetic character, i.e. either an uppercase letter (ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ), a lowercase letter (abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz) or any alphabetic character specific to the current locale.

Parameters

ch - wide character

Return value

Non-zero value if the wide character is a alphabetic character, 0 otherwise.

Example 

#include <iostream>
#include <cwctype>
#include <clocale>
 
int main()
{
    wchar_t c = L'\u0b83'; // Tamil sign Visarga ('ஃ')
 
    std::cout << std::hex << std::showbase << std::boolalpha;
    std::cout << "in the default locale, iswalpha(" << (std::wint_t)c << ") = "
              << (bool)std::iswalpha(c) << '\n';
    std::setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.utf8");
    std::cout << "in Unicode locale, iswalpha(" << (std::wint_t)c << ") = "
              << (bool)std::iswalpha(c) << '\n';
}

Output:

in the default locale, iswalpha(0xb83) = false
in Unicode locale, iswalpha(0xb83) = true
