Defined in header <wctype.h>
int iswgraph( wint_t ch );		(since C95)

Checks if the given wide character has a graphical representation, i.e. it is either a number (0123456789), an uppercase letter (ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ), a lowercase letter (abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz), a punctuation character(!"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^_`{|}~) or any graphical character specific to the current C locale.

Parameters

ch

-

wide character

Return value

Non-zero value if the wide character has a graphical representation character, zero otherwise.

Example

Run this code

#include <stdio.h>
#include <wchar.h>
#include <wctype.h>
#include <locale.h>
 
int main(void)
{
    wchar_t c = L'\u2602'; // the Unicode character Umbrella ('☂')
    printf("in the default locale, iswgraph(%#x) = %d\n", c, !!iswgraph(c));
    setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.utf8");
    printf("in Unicode locale, iswgraph(%#x) = %d\n", c, !!iswgraph(c));
}

Output:

in the default locale, iswgraph(0x2602) = 0
in Unicode locale, iswgraph(0x2602) = 1
