NAME

       iswdigit - test for decimal digit wide character

LIBRARY

       Standard C library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <wctype.h>

       int iswdigit(wint_t wc);

DESCRIPTION

       The iswdigit() function is the wide-character equivalent of the isdigit(3) function.  It tests whether wc
       is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class "digit".

       The wide-character class "digit" is a subclass of the wide-character class "xdigit", and therefore also a
       subclass  of  the  wide-character  class  "alnum",  of  the wide-character class "graph" and of the wide-
       character class "print".

       Being a subclass of the wide character class "print", the wide-character class "digit" is  disjoint  from
       the wide-character class "cntrl".

       Being  a  subclass of the wide-character class "graph", the wide-character class "digit" is disjoint from
       the wide-character class "space" and its subclass "blank".

       Being a subclass of the wide-character class "alnum", the wide-character class "digit" is  disjoint  from
       the wide-character class "punct".

       The  wide-character  class  "digit"  is disjoint from the wide-character class "alpha" and therefore also
       disjoint from its subclasses "lower", "upper".

       The wide-character class "digit" always contains exactly the digits '0' to '9'.

RETURN VALUE

       The iswdigit() function returns nonzero if wc is a wide character belonging to the  wide-character  class
       "digit".  Otherwise, it returns zero.
