Hi,

I'm a beginner to C++ and I'm testing a very small program with the
islower()
function.  For some reason, this function is returning zero whether I input
a capital
or a non-capital.  Here's the program:

#include <iostream.h>
#include <ctype.h>

void main()
{
  char a;
  int x;

  cout << "Input a character: ";
  cin >> a;
  x = islower(a);
  cout << endl << x;
}

All help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Atram
