function template
<locale>

std::isdigit

template <class charT> bool isdigit (charT c, const locale& loc);
Check if character is a decimal digit using locale
Checks whether c is a decimal digit character using the ctype facet of locale loc, returning the same as if ctype::is is called as:

1
use_facet < ctype<charT> > (loc).is (ctype_base::digit, c)

This function template overloads the C function isdigit (defined in <cctype>).

Parameters

c
Character to be checked.
loc
Locale to be used. It shall have a ctype facet.

The template argument charT is the character type.

Return Value

true if indeed c is a decimal digit character.
false otherwise.

// isdigit example (C++) #include <iostream> // std::cout #include <string> // std::string #include <locale> // std::locale, std::isdigit #include <sstream> // std::stringstream int main () { std::locale loc; std::string str="1776ad"; if (isdigit(str[0],loc)) { int year; std::stringstream(str) >> year; std::cout << "The year that followed " << year << " was " << (year+1) << ".\n"; } return 0; }

Output:
 The year that followed 1776 was 1777. 


Data races

Both loc and its ctype facet are accessed.

Exception safety

Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no effects.
