       This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The OS
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding
       OS manual page for details of OS behavior), or the interface may not be
       implemented on OS.

DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
       For _i_s_w_a_l_n_u_m(): The functionality described on this reference page is
       aligned with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements
       described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of
       POSIX.1-2017 defers to the ISO C standard.

       The _i_s_w_a_l_n_u_m() and _i_s_w_a_l_n_u_m___l() functions shall test whether _w_c is a
       wide-character code representing a character of class aallpphhaa or ddiiggiitt in
       the current locale, or in the locale represented by _l_o_c_a_l_e,
       respectively; see the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1-2017, _C_h_a_p_t_e_r
       _7, _L_o_c_a_l_e.

       The _w_c argument is a wwiinntt__tt, the value of which the application shall
       ensure is a wide-character code corresponding to a valid character in
       the locale used by the function, or equal to the value of the macro
       WEOF. If the argument has any other value, the behavior is undefined.

       The behavior is undefined if the _l_o_c_a_l_e argument to _i_s_w_a_l_n_u_m___l() is the
       special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is not a valid locale object
       handle.

RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE
       The _i_s_w_a_l_n_u_m() and _i_s_w_a_l_n_u_m___l() functions shall return non-zero if _w_c
       is an alphanumeric wide-character code; otherwise, they shall return 0.

       No errors are defined.

AAPPPPLLIICCAATTIIOONN UUSSAAGGEE
       To ensure applications portability, especially across natural
       languages, only these functions and the functions in the reference
       pages listed in the SEE ALSO section should be used for character
       classification.
