check if a variable is a character

[Kate]

So there's IsInt and IsNumber...I need IsChar or IsCharacter. Just trying to test if a variable is a character A-Z. Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks,

Kate

Ah! Thanks! I kept searching for "character" :/ Apparently my search-fu is weak today. Thanks again!

You can use this:

ConsoleWrite("1: "& IsCharSet("1") & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("A: "&IsCharSet("A") &  @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("a: "&IsCharSet("a") &  @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("A1: "&IsCharSet("A1") &  @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("AA: "&IsCharSet("AA") &  @CRLF)

Func IsCharSet($in, $pattern = "(?i)[^A-Z]")
    If $in = "" Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0) ;input is empty
    Local $aRegEx = StringRegExp($in, $pattern, 3)
    If @error Then Return 1
    Return 0
EndFunc

It may be that there is a much easier way to check this which I don't have in mind currently.
