NAME
iswlower - test for lowercase wide character SYNOPSIS
#include
int iswlower(wintt wc); DESCRIPTION The iswlower() function is the wide-character equivalent of the islower(3) function. It tests whether wc is a wide character belonging
to the wide-character class "lower".
The wide-character class "lower" is a subclass of the wide-character
class "alpha", and therefore also a subclass of the wide-character
class "alnum", of the wide-character class "graph" and of the wide- character class "print".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "print", the wide-charac‐
ter class "lower" is disjoint from the wide-character class "cntrl".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "graph", the wide-charac‐
ter class "lower" is disjoint from the wide-character class "space" and its subclass "blank".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "alnum", the wide-charac‐
ter class "lower" is disjoint from the wide-character class "punct".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "alpha", the wide-charac‐
ter class "lower" is disjoint from the wide-character class "digit".
The wide-character class "lower" contains at least those characters wc which are equal to towlower(wc) and different from towupper(wc).
The wide-character class "lower" always contains at least the letters 'a' to 'z'. RETURN VALUE The iswlower() function returns nonzero if wc is a wide character
belonging to the wide-character class "lower". Otherwise it returns zero. ATTRIBUTES For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7). ┌───────────┬───────────────┬────────────────┐ │Interface │ Attribute │ Value │ ├───────────┼───────────────┼────────────────┤

NOTES The behavior of iswlower() depends on the LCCTYPE category of the cur‐ rent locale. This function is not very appropriate for dealing with Unicode charac‐ ters, because Unicode knows about three cases: upper, lower and title case.
