Java Character isLetterOrDigit(int codePoint) Method
Java isLetterOrDigit(int codePoint)
method is a part of Character
class. This method is used to check whether the specified Unicode codepoint character is a letter or a digit.
A character can be considered as a letter or a digit if either Character.isLetter(char ch)
or Character.isDigit(char ch)
returns true
for the character.
Syntax:
public static boolean isLetterOrDigit(int codePoint)
Parameters:
The parameter passed is the Unicode codePoint character to be checked for digit or letter.
Returns:
Returns the boolean value true
if the specified character is a digit or a letter else return false
.
Example 1:
Here, the characters are checked whether they are a letter or digit or not.
public class StudyTonight
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int cp1 = 48;
int cp2 = 61;
int cp3 = 119;
int cp4 = 90;
int cp5 = 1232;
boolean b1 = Character.isLetterOrDigit(cp1);
boolean b2 = Character.isLetterOrDigit(cp2);
boolean b3 = Character.isLetterOrDigit(cp3);
boolean b4 = Character.isLetterOrDigit(cp4);
boolean b5 = Character.isLetterOrDigit(cp5);
System.out.println((char)cp1 +" is a letter or digit??: "+b1);
System.out.println((char)cp2 +" is a letter or digit??: "+b2);
System.out.println((char)cp3 +" is a letter or digit??: "+b3);
System.out.println((char)cp4 +" is a letter or digit??: "+b4);
System.out.println((char)cp5 +" is a letter or digit??: "+b5);
}
}
0 is a letter or digit??: true
= is a letter or digit??: false
w is a letter or digit??: true
Z is a letter or digit??: true
? is a letter or digit??: true
Example 2:
Here is a user-defined example where anyone using this code can put a value of his choice and get the equivalent output.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class StudyTonight
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
try
{
System.out.print("Enter the Unicode character: ");
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
int cp = sc.nextInt();
boolean b = Character.isLetterOrDigit(cp);
System.out.println((char)cp + " is a Letter or digit?: "+b);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
System.out.println("Invalid Input!!");
}
}
}
Enter the Unicode character: 77
M is a Letter or digit?: true
***************************************
Enter the Unicode character: 44
, is a Letter or digit?: false
