# Module Batteries.Char

    module Char: BatChar

    val code : char -> int

Return the ASCII code of the argument.

    val chr : int -> char

Return the character with the given ASCII code.
Raises `Invalid_argument` if the argument is outside the range 0--255.

    val escaped : char -> string

Return a string representing the given character, with special characters escaped following the lexical conventions of OCaml.

    val lowercase : char -> char

Convert the given character to its equivalent lowercase character.

    val uppercase : char -> char

Convert the given character to its equivalent uppercase character.

    type t = char

An alias for the type of characters.

    val is_whitespace : char -> bool

Determine if a character is a whitespace. Whitespace characters are defined as `' '`, `'\010'`, `'\013'`, `'\009'`, `'\026'` and `'\012'`.

    val is_uppercase : char -> bool

Determine if a character is uppercase ASCII. A character is uppercase ASCII if it is between `'A'` and `'Z'`

    val is_lowercase : char -> bool

Determine if a character is lowercase ASCII. A character is lowercase ASCII if it is between `'a'` and `'z'`

    val is_uppercase_latin1 : char -> bool

Determine if a character is uppercase Latin 1. A character is uppercase Latin 1 if it is between `'A'` and `'Z'`, between `'À'` and `'Ö'` or between `'Ø'` and `'Ý'`

    val is_lowercase_latin1 : char -> bool

Determine if a character is lowercase Latin 1. A character is lowercase Latin 1 if it is between `'a'` and `'z'`, between `'Þ'` and `'ö'` or between `'ø'` and `'ÿ'`

    val is_latin1 : char -> bool

Determine if a character is a Latin 1 letter. A character is a Latin 1 letter if it is either an uppercase or a lowercase Latin 1 character.

    val is_digit : char -> bool

Determine if a character represents a digit. Digits are `'0'`, `'1'`, ... `'9'`.

    val is_symbol : char -> bool

Determine if a character represents a (OCaml-style) symbol. Symbols are `'!'`, `'%'`, `'&'`, `'$'`, `'#'`, `'+'`, `'-'`, `'/'`, `':'`, `'<'`, `'='` `'>'`, `'?'`, `'@'`, `'\\'`, `'~'`, `'^'`, `'|'`, `'*'`

    val is_letter : char -> bool

Determine if a character represents a ASCII letter.

    val is_newline : char -> bool

Determine if a character is a newline. Newline characters are defined as `'\010'` and `'\013'`

    val of_digit : int -> char

Return the character representing a given digit.
Raises `Invalid_argument` if the argument is outside the range 0--9

    val enum : unit -> char BatEnum.t

Produce the enumeration of all characters

    val range : ?until:char -> char -> char BatEnum.t

`range from ?until` produces an enumeration of the characters from `from` to `until` included `until` defaults to `'\255'`

    val (--) : char -> char -> char BatEnum.t

Produce the enumeration of a segment of characters.

`'a' -- 'z'` is the enumeration of all characters between `'a'` and `'z'` included.

    module Infix: sig .. end

Infix submodule regrouping all infix operators

###### Boilerplate code

    val print : 'a BatInnerIO.output -> Char.t -> unit

    val compare : t -> t -> int

The comparison function for characters, with the same specification as `Pervasives.compare`. Along with the type `t`, this function `compare` allows the module `Char` to be passed as argument to the functors `Set.Make` and `Map.Make`.

    val equal : t -> t -> bool

    val hash : t -> int

    val ord : char BatOrd.ord

    module Incubator: sig .. end
