std::iswdigit

Defined in header <cwctype>
int iswdigit( wint_t ch );

Checks if the given wide character corresponds (if narrowed) to one of the ten decimal digit characters 0123456789.

If the value of ch is neither representable as a wchar_t nor equal to the value of the macro WEOF, the behavior is undefined.

Parameters

ch - wide character

Return value

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

Notes

std::iswdigit and std::iswxdigit are the only standard wide character classification functions that are not affected by the currently installed C locale.

Example

Some locales offer additional character classes that detect non-ASCII digits.

#include <clocale>
#include <cwctype>
#include <iostream>
 
void test(wchar_t a3, wchar_t u3, wchar_t j3)
{
    std::wcout << std::boolalpha
               << "\t   '" << a3 << "'   '" << u3 << "'  '" << j3  << "'\n"
               << "iswdigit: "
               << (bool)std::iswdigit(a3) << "  "
               << (bool)std::iswdigit(u3) << " "
               << (bool)std::iswdigit(j3) << '\n'
               << "jdigit:   "
               << (bool)std::iswctype(a3, std::wctype("jdigit")) << ' '
               << (bool)std::iswctype(u3, std::wctype("jdigit")) << ' '
               << (bool)std::iswctype(j3, std::wctype("jdigit")) << '\n';
}
 
int main()
{
    wchar_t a3 = L'3';  // the ASCII digit 3
    wchar_t u3 = L'三'; // the CJK numeral 3
    wchar_t j3 = L'3'; // the full-width digit 3
 
    std::setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.utf8");
    std::wcout << "In American locale:\n";
    test(a3, u3, j3);
 
    std::wcout << "\nIn Japanese locale:\n";
    std::setlocale(LC_ALL, "ja_JP.utf8");
    test(a3, u3, j3);
}

Possible output:

In American locale:
           '3'   '三'  '3'
iswdigit: true  false false
jdigit:   false false false
 
In Japanese locale:
           '3'   '三'  '3'
iswdigit: true  false false
jdigit:   false false true
