Char.IsSeparator Method (Char)
Indicates whether the specified Unicode character is categorized as a separator character.
Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- c
- Type: System.Char
The Unicode character to evaluate.
The Unicode standard recognizes three subcategories of separators:
Space separators (the UnicodeCategory.SpaceSeparator category), which includes characters such as \u0020.
Line separators (the UnicodeCategory.LineSeparator category), which includes \u2028.
Paragraph separators (the UnicodeCategory.ParagraphSeparator category), which includes \u2029.
 Note |
|---|
The Unicode standard classifies the characters \u000A (LF), \u000C (FF), and \u000A (CR) as control characters (members of the UnicodeCategory.Control category), not as separator characters. |
The following example lists the Char objects that are classified as separator characters.
using System; public class Class1 { public static void Main() { for (int ctr = Convert.ToInt32(Char.MinValue); ctr <= Convert.ToInt32(Char.MaxValue); ctr++) { char ch = (Char) ctr; if (Char.IsSeparator(ch)) Console.WriteLine(@"\u{0:X4} ({1})", (int) ch, Char.GetUnicodeCategory(ch).ToString()); } } } // The example displays the following output: // \u0020 (SpaceSeparator) // \u00A0 (SpaceSeparator) // \u1680 (SpaceSeparator) // \u180E (SpaceSeparator) // \u2000 (SpaceSeparator) // \u2001 (SpaceSeparator) // \u2002 (SpaceSeparator) // \u2003 (SpaceSeparator) // \u2004 (SpaceSeparator) // \u2005 (SpaceSeparator) // \u2006 (SpaceSeparator) // \u2007 (SpaceSeparator) // \u2008 (SpaceSeparator) // \u2009 (SpaceSeparator) // \u200A (SpaceSeparator) // \u2028 (LineSeparator) // \u2029 (ParagraphSeparator) // \u202F (SpaceSeparator) // \u205F (SpaceSeparator) // \u3000 (SpaceSeparator)
