SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       and  have as domain the range of getc(3S): the integers from -1 through 255.  If the argument of represents a lower-case letter, the result
       is the corresponding upper-case letter.	If the argument of represents an upper-case letter, the result	is  the  corresponding	lower-case
       letter.	All other arguments in the domain are returned unchanged.  Arguments outside the domain cause undefined results.

       The macros and are identical to and respectively.

       yields  its  argument  with  all  bits that are not part of a standard 7-bit ASCII character cleared; it is intended for compatibility with
       other systems.
