It tests whether \fIwc\fP is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class "alnum". .PP The wide-character class "alnum" is a subclass of the wide-character class "graph", and therefore also a subclass of the wide-character class "print". .PP Being a subclass of the wide-character class "print", the wide-character class "alnum" is disjoint from the wide-character class "cntrl". .PP Being a subclass of the wide-character class "graph", the wide-character class "alnum" is disjoint from the wide-character class "space" and its subclass "blank". .PP The wide-character class "alnum" is disjoint from the wide-character class "punct". .PP The wide-character class "alnum" is the union of the wide-character classes "alpha" and "digit". As such, it also contains the wide-character class "xdigit". .PP The wide-character class "alnum" always contains at least the letters 'A' to 'Z', 'a' to 'z' and the digits '0' to '9'. .SH "RETURN VALUE" The \fBiswalnum\fP() function returns non-zero if \fIwc\fP is a wide character belonging to the wide-character class "alnum". Otherwise it returns zero. .SH "CONFORMING TO" C99. .SH "SEE ALSO" .BR isalnum (3), .BR iswctype (3) .SH NOTES The behaviour of \fBiswalnum\fP() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
