NAME

     islower -- lower-case character test

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <ctype.h>

     int
     islower(int c);

DESCRIPTION

     The islower() function tests for any lower-case letters.  The value of the argument must be representable as an unsigned char or the value of
     EOF.

     In the ASCII character set, this includes the following characters (with their numeric values shown in octal):

     141 ``a''	   142 ``b''	 143 ``c''     144 ``d''     145 ``e''
     146 ``f''	   147 ``g''	 150 ``h''     151 ``i''     152 ``j''
     153 ``k''	   154 ``l''	 155 ``m''     156 ``n''     157 ``o''
     160 ``p''	   161 ``q''	 162 ``r''     163 ``s''     164 ``t''
     165 ``u''	   166 ``v''	 167 ``w''     170 ``x''     171 ``y''
     172 ``z''

RETURN VALUES

     The islower() 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 iswlower() function should be used instead.

SEE ALSO

     ctype(3), isalnum_l(3), iswlower(3), tolower(3), ascii(7)

STANDARDS

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