iscntrl

iscntrl(c::Union{Char,AbstractString}) -> Bool

Tests whether a character is a control character, or whether this is true for all elements of a string. Control characters are the non-printing characters of the Latin-1 subset of Unicode.

Examples

Check if a single character is a control character:
```
julia> iscntrl('\t')
true
```
This example checks if the tab character ('\t') is a control character.
Check if all characters in a string are control characters:
```
julia> iscntrl("Hello\nWorld")
false
```
It checks if all characters in the string "Hello\nWorld" are control characters.
Handle empty strings:
```
julia> iscntrl("")
false
```
This example demonstrates that an empty string does not contain any control characters.

Common mistake example:

julia> iscntrl(65)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching iscntrl(::Int64)

In this example, the input is an integer (65) instead of a character or string. Make sure to provide valid character or string inputs to the iscntrl function.
