isgraph() C library function

The C library function isgraph() checks whether a character is a graphic character or not.
Characters that have graphical representation are known are graphic characters. For example: ‘:’ ‘;’ ‘?’ ‘@’ etc.

Syntax –

#include <ctype.h>
int isgraph(int ch);

Return Value – function returns nonzero if ch is any printable character other than a space, else it returns 0.

For ASCII environments, printable characters are in the range of 0X21 through 0X7E.

Code –

// code to check graphical character 
#include <stdio.h> 
#include <ctype.h> 
  
int main() 
{ 
    char var1 = 'g'; 
    char var2 = ' '; 
    char var3 = '1'; 
  
    if (isgraph(var1))  
        printf("var1 = |%c| can be printed
", var1); 
    else 
        printf("var1 = |%c| can't be printed
", var1); 
  
    if (isgraph(var2))  
        printf("var2 = |%c| can be printed
", var2); 
    else 
        printf("var2 = |%c| can't be printed
", var2); 
      
    if (isgraph(var3))  
        printf("var3 = |%c| can be printed
", var3); 
    else 
        printf("var3 = |%c| can't be printed
", var3); 
  
    return (0); 
} 

Output –

var1 = |g| can be printed
var2 = | | can't be printed
var3 = |1| can be printed

Code –

// code to print all Graphical Characters 
#include <stdio.h> 
#include <ctype.h> 
  
int main() 
{  
    int i; 
    printf("In C programming All graphic "
            "characters are:
"); 
  
    for (i = 0; i <= 127; ++i)  
        if (isgraph(i) != 0) 
            printf("%c ", i);     
  
    return 0; 
} 

Output –

In C programming All graphic characters are: 
! " # $ % & ' ( ) * +, - . / 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 
: ;  ? @ A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U
