s

-

string; string to test

Description

• 

The HasAlphaNumeric(s) command determines whether s has alphanumeric characters. That is, whether it has either alphabetic or decimal digit characters. A character is alphabetic if it is either upper or lowercase. A character is a decimal digit if it is one of the following:

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

  

If s has at least one alphanumeric character, HasAlphaNumeric returns true. Otherwise, false is returned.

• 

All of the StringTools package commands treat strings as (null-terminated) sequences of 8-bit (ASCII) characters.  Thus, there is no support for multibyte character encodings, such as unicode encodings.

Thread Safety

• 

The StringTools[HasAlphaNumeric] command is thread-safe as of Maple 15.

• 

For more information on thread safety, see index/threadsafe.
