Description
Implementations for the character predicates (isLower, isUpper, etc.) and the conversions (toUpper, toLower). The implementation uses libunicode on Unix systems if that is available.

unicodeVersion :: Version Source #
Version of Unicode standard used by base.
data GeneralCategory Source #
Unicode General Categories (column 2 of the UnicodeData table) in the order they are listed in the Unicode standard (the Unicode Character Database, in particular).
Examples
Basic usage:
>>>:t OtherLetterOtherLetter :: GeneralCategory
Eq instance:
>>>UppercaseLetter == UppercaseLetterTrue>>>UppercaseLetter == LowercaseLetterFalse
Ord instance:
>>>NonSpacingMark <= MathSymbolTrue
Enum instance:

Read instance:
>>>read "DashPunctuation" :: GeneralCategoryDashPunctuation>>>read "17" :: GeneralCategory*** Exception: Prelude.read: no parse
Show instance:
>>>show EnclosingMark"EnclosingMark"
Bounded instance:
>>>minBound :: GeneralCategoryUppercaseLetter>>>maxBound :: GeneralCategoryNotAssigned
Ix instance:
>>>import Data.Ix ( index )>>>index (OtherLetter,Control) FinalQuote12>>>index (OtherLetter,Control) Format*** Exception: Error in array index

Instances
generalCategory :: Char -> GeneralCategory Source #
The Unicode general category of the character. This relies on the
Enum instance of GeneralCategory, which must remain in the
same order as the categories are presented in the Unicode
standard.
Examples
Basic usage:
>>>generalCategory 'a'LowercaseLetter>>>generalCategory 'A'UppercaseLetter>>>generalCategory '0'DecimalNumber>>>generalCategory '%'OtherPunctuation>>>generalCategory '♥'OtherSymbol>>>generalCategory '\31'Control>>>generalCategory ' 'Space
isAscii :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects the first 128 characters of the Unicode character set, corresponding to the ASCII character set.
isLatin1 :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects the first 256 characters of the Unicode character set, corresponding to the ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) character set.
isControl :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects control characters, which are the non-printing characters of the Latin-1 subset of Unicode.
isAsciiUpper :: Char -> Bool Source #
isAsciiLower :: Char -> Bool Source #
isPrint :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects printable Unicode characters (letters, numbers, marks, punctuation, symbols and spaces).
isSpace :: Char -> Bool Source #
Returns True for any Unicode space character, and the control
characters \t, \n, \r, \f, \v.
isUpper :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects upper-case or title-case alphabetic Unicode characters (letters). Title case is used by a small number of letter ligatures like the single-character form of Lj.
isAlpha :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects alphabetic Unicode characters (lower-case, upper-case and
title-case letters, plus letters of caseless scripts and modifiers letters).
This function is equivalent to isLetter.
isOctDigit :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects ASCII octal digits, i.e. '0'..'7'.
isHexDigit :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects ASCII hexadecimal digits,
i.e. '0'..'9', 'a'..'f', 'A'..'F'.
isAlphaNum :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects alphabetic or numeric Unicode characters.
Note that numeric digits outside the ASCII range, as well as numeric
characters which aren't digits, are selected by this function but not by
isDigit. Such characters may be part of identifiers but are not used by
the printer and reader to represent numbers.
isPunctuation :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects Unicode punctuation characters, including various kinds of connectors, brackets and quotes.
This function returns True if its argument has one of the
following GeneralCategorys, or False otherwise:
ConnectorPunctuationDashPunctuationOpenPunctuationClosePunctuationInitialQuoteFinalQuoteOtherPunctuation
These classes are defined in the Unicode Character Database, part of the Unicode standard. The same document defines what is and is not a "Punctuation".
Examples
Basic usage:
>>>isPunctuation 'a'False>>>isPunctuation '7'False>>>isPunctuation '♥'False>>>isPunctuation '"'True>>>isPunctuation '?'True>>>isPunctuation '—'True
isSymbol :: Char -> Bool Source #
Selects Unicode symbol characters, including mathematical and currency symbols.
This function returns True if its argument has one of the
following GeneralCategorys, or False otherwise:
These classes are defined in the Unicode Character Database, part of the Unicode standard. The same document defines what is and is not a "Symbol".
Examples
Basic usage:
>>>isSymbol 'a'False>>>isSymbol '6'False>>>isSymbol '='True
The definition of "math symbol" may be a little counter-intuitive depending on one's background:
>>>isSymbol '+'True>>>isSymbol '-'False
toUpper :: Char -> Char Source #
Convert a letter to the corresponding upper-case letter, if any. Any other character is returned unchanged.
toLower :: Char -> Char Source #
Convert a letter to the corresponding lower-case letter, if any. Any other character is returned unchanged.
