Java.lang.Character.isSpaceChar() Method
Description
The java.lang.Character.isSpaceChar(int codePoint) determines if the specified character (Unicode code point) is a Unicode space character. A character is considered to be a space character if and only if it is specified to be a space character by the Unicode Standard.
This method returns true if the character's general category type is any of the following −
- SPACE_SEPARATOR
- LINE_SEPARATOR
- PARAGRAPH_SEPARATOR
Declaration
Following is the declaration for java.lang.Character.isSpaceChar() method
public static boolean isSpaceChar(int codePoint)
Parameters
codePoint − the character (Unicode code point) to be tested
Return Value
This method returns true if the character is a space character, false otherwise.
Exception
NA
Example
The following example shows the usage of lang.Character.isSpaceChar() method.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.lang.*; public class CharacterDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // create 2 int primitives cp1, cp2 int cp1, cp2; // assign values to cp1, cp2 cp1 = 0x2029; // PARAGRAPH_SEPARATOR cp2 = 0x1010; // create 2 boolean primitives b1, b2 boolean b1, b2; /** * check if cp1, cp2 represent space characters * and assign results to b1, b2 */ b1 = Character.isSpaceChar(cp1); b2 = Character.isSpaceChar(cp2); String str1 = "cp1 represents a space character is " + b1; String str2 = "cp2 represents a space character is " + b2; // print b1, b2 values System.out.println( str1 ); System.out.println( str2 ); } }
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
cp1 represents a space character is true cp2 represents a space character is false
