Tutorialsrack 22/04/2020 Python

In this Python program, we will learn how to check whether a character is an alphabet, digit, or special character using ASCII values. For checking if a character is an alphabet, digit or special character, we will use if...elif...else statement and ord() function to convert a character to an ASCII value and compare it with predefined ASCII value range which starts from 0 to 127. For checking, if a character is an alphabet or digit, enter the alphabet from a-z or A-Z  and for digit, enter the value between 0-9 and for Special character enter the value such as #, $, %, ^, &, etc.

Here is the code of the program to check whether a character is an alphabet, digit, or special character using ASCII values.

# Python Program to check whether a character is an Alphabet ,Digit or Special Character using ASCII Values

# Take the Input from The User
ch = input("Enter any Character: ")

if(ord(ch) >= 48 and ord(ch) <= 57): 
    print("The Given Character", ch, "is a Digit") 
elif((ord(ch) >= 65 and ord(ch) <= 90) or (ord(ch) >= 97 and ord(ch) <= 122)):
    print("The Given Character", ch, "is an Alphabet")
else:
    print("The Given Character", ch, "is a Special Character")
