Synopsis:

#include <wctype.h>

wint_t towlower( wint_t wc );

Arguments:

The wide character that you want to convert. This argument must be a wide-character code that corresponds to a valid character in the current locale, or must be WEOF; otherwise, the function's behavior is undefined.

Description:

The towlower() function converts wc to a lowercase letter, if wc represents an uppercase letter.
