Indicates whether a specified Unicode character is categorized as a control character.

Overloads

IsControl(Char)	Indicates whether the specified Unicode character is categorized as a control character.
IsControl(String, Int32)	Indicates whether the character at the specified position in a specified string is categorized as a control character.

Remarks

Control characters are formatting and other non-printing characters, such as ACK, BEL, CR, FF, LF, and VT. The Unicode standard assigns code points from \U0000 to \U001F, \U007F, and from \U0080 to \U009F to control characters. According to the Unicode standard, these values are to be interpreted as control characters unless their use is otherwise defined by an application. Valid control characters are members of the UnicodeCategory.Control category.

static member IsControl : char -> bool

Public Shared Function IsControl (c As Char) As Boolean

Parameters

c: Char

The Unicode character to evaluate.

Examples

The following example lists the Unicode code point of each of the control characters.

Source:: Char.cs

Indicates whether the character at the specified position in a specified string is categorized as a control character.

public:
 static bool IsControl(System::String ^ s, int index);

public static bool IsControl (string s, int index);

static member IsControl : string * int -> bool

Public Shared Function IsControl (s As String, index As Integer) As Boolean

Parameters

s: String

A string.

index: Int32

The position of the character to evaluate in s.

Returns

Boolean

true if the character at position index in s is a control character; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException

s is null.

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

index is less than zero or greater than the last position in s.

Examples

The following example enumerates the characters in a string and determines whether any are control characters.

}
// The example displays the following output:

// The example displays the following output to the console:

// The example displays the following output to the console:
