Return Value: If $codepoint is a space character then it returns True, otherwise return False.

Below programs illustrate the IntlChar::isspace() function in PHP:

Program 1:  

PHP 
<?php
// PHP code to illustrate IntlChar::isspace()

// Input data is space character
var_dump(IntlChar::isspace("\n"));
 
// Input character is control or space character
var_dump(IntlChar::isspace("\t"));

var_dump(IntlChar::isspace(" "));
 
?>
