41.Nd hexadecimal-digit single-byte character test
42.Sh SYNOPSIS
43.In ctype.h
44.Ft int
45.Fn isxdigit "int c"
46.Ft int
47.Fn isxdigit_l "int c" "locale_t locale"
48.Sh DESCRIPTION
49The
50.Fn isxdigit
51and
52.Fn isxdigit_l
53functions test for any hexadecimal-digit character.
54.Pp
55In the C locale, the complete list of hexadecimal digits
56is 0, 1\(en9, A\(enF, and a\(enf.
57.Ox
58always uses the C locale for these functions,
59ignoring the global locale, the thread-specific locale, and the
60.Fa locale
61argument.
62.Sh RETURN VALUES
63These functions return zero if the character tests false or
64non-zero if the character tests true.
65.Sh ENVIRONMENT
66On systems supporting non-ASCII single-byte character encodings,
67these functions may return non-zero for additional characters,
68and the results of
69.Fn isxdigit
70may depend on the
71.Ev LC_CTYPE
72.Xr locale 1 .
