c++98 check if character is integer
To check if a character is an integer in C++98, you can use the isdigit()
function from the <cctype>
library. Here are the step-by-step explanations for using this function:
Include the
<cctype>
library:cpp #include <cctype>
Declare a character variable to store the character you want to check, for example,
char ch = '7';
.Use the
isdigit()
function to check if the character is an integer:cpp if (isdigit(ch)) { // The character is an integer } else { // The character is not an integer }
The isdigit()
function returns a non-zero value if the character is a decimal digit (0-9), and 0 otherwise.
Here's a complete example:
#include <iostream>
#include <cctype>
int main() {
char ch = '7';
if (isdigit(ch)) {
std::cout << "The character is an integer." << std::endl;
} else {
std::cout << "The character is not an integer." << std::endl;
}
return 0;
}
In this example, the character '7' is an integer, so the output will be "The character is an integer."
Remember to include the <cctype>
library and use the isdigit()
function to check if a character is an integer in C++98.
