 isascii()               Test for ASCII Character (Macro)

 #include   <ctype.h>

 int        isascii(c);
 int        c;                           Integer to be tested

    isascii() is a macro that tests if 'c' is a member of the 7-bit ASCII
    character set; that is, if:

                        0  <=  c  <= 127

    Returns:    True (nonzero) if the integer satisfies the test
                condition and false (zero) if it does not.

      Notes:    isascii() is a macro.

 Portability:   Not supported by ANSI standard.

   -------------------------------- Example ---------------------------------

    The following statements get input from stdin, testing that only
    ASCII characters are stored.

           #include <ctype.h>
           #include <stdio.h>

           int x = 0;
           char buffer[80];
           int ch;

           main()
           {
              while (isascii(ch = getche()))
                    buffer[x++] = ch;
           }
