<h4><a name="tag_03_303_03"></a>DESCRIPTION</h4>
<blockquote>
<div class="box"><sup>[<a href="javascript:open_code('CX')">CX</a>]</sup> <img src="../images/opt-start.gif" alt="[Option Start]"
border="0"> The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO&nbsp;C standard. Any conflict between the
requirements described here and the ISO&nbsp;C standard is unintentional. This volume of IEEE&nbsp;Std&nbsp;1003.1-2001 defers to
the ISO&nbsp;C standard. <img src="../images/opt-end.gif" alt="[Option End]" border="0"></div>
<p>The <i>ispunct</i>() function shall test whether <i>c</i> is a character of class <b>punct</b> in the program's current locale;
see the Base Definitions volume of IEEE&nbsp;Std&nbsp;1003.1-2001, <a href="../basedefs/xbd_chap07.html">Chapter 7, Locale</a>.</p>
<p>The <i>c</i> argument is an <b>int</b>, the value of which the application shall ensure is a character representable as an
<b>unsigned char</b> or equal to the value of the macro EOF. If the argument has any other value, the behavior is undefined.</p>
</blockquote>
