I know about islower
and isupper
, but can you check whether or not that character is a letter?
For Example:
>>> s = 'abcdefg' >>> s2 = '123abcd' >>> s3 = 'abcDEFG' >>> s[0].islower() True >>> s2[0].islower() False >>> s3[0].islower() True
Is there any way to just ask if it is a character besides doing .islower()
or .isupper()
?

You can use str.isalpha()
.
For example:
s = 'a123b' for char in s: print(char, char.isalpha())
Output:
a True 1 False 2 False 3 False b True
