The IsLetter() function is an inbuilt function of the unicode package which is used to check whether the given rune r is a letter (category L – the set of Unicode letters).

It accepts one parameter (r rune) and returns true if rune r is a letter; false, otherwise.

Syntax

Return Value

The return type of the unicode.IsLetter() function is a bool, it returns true if rune r is a letter; false, otherwise.

Example 1

// Golang program to demonstrate the
// example of unicode.IsLetter() Function

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"unicode"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Println("unicode.IsLetter('A'):",
		unicode.IsLetter('A'))
	fmt.Println("unicode.IsLetter('r'):",
		unicode.IsLetter('r'))
	fmt.Println("unicode.IsLetter(' '):",
		unicode.IsLetter(' '))
	fmt.Println("unicode.IsLetter('&'):",
		unicode.IsLetter('&'))
	fmt.Println("unicode.IsLetter('☺')",
		unicode.IsLetter('☺'))
	fmt.Println("unicode.IsLetter('🙈'):",
		unicode.IsLetter('🙈'))
	fmt.Println("unicode.IsLetter('!'):",
		unicode.IsLetter('!'))
}

Output:

unicode.IsLetter('A'): true
unicode.IsLetter('r'): true
unicode.IsLetter(' '): false
unicode.IsLetter('&'): false
unicode.IsLetter('☺') false
unicode.IsLetter('🙈'): false
unicode.IsLetter('!'): false

Example 2

// Golang program to demonstrate the
// example of unicode.IsLetter() Function

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"unicode"
)

func main() {
	var r rune
	var result bool

	r = 'R'
	result = unicode.IsLetter(r)
	if result == true {
		fmt.Printf("%c is a letter (category L).\n", r)
	} else {
		fmt.Printf("%c is not a letter (category L).\n", r)
	}

	r = '🙈'
	result = unicode.IsLetter(r)
	if result == true {
		fmt.Printf("%c is a letter (category L).\n", r)
	} else {
		fmt.Printf("%c is not a letter (category L).\n", r)
	}

	r = 'Ɐ'
	result = unicode.IsLetter(r)
	if result == true {
		fmt.Printf("%c is a letter (category L).\n", r)
	} else {
		fmt.Printf("%c is not a letter (category L).\n", r)
