Notes
- A white space character is defined as one of the 25 characters defined as a white space ("WSpace=Y","WS") character in the Unicode 9.0 character database, as well as one related white space character without the Unicode character property "WSpace=Y" (zero width non-breaking space which was deprecated as of Unicode 3.2).
- For non-string values, the function returns
false
.
Examples
var isWhitespace = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-whitespace' );
var out = isWhitespace( ' ' );
// returns true
out = isWhitespace( '' );
// returns false
out = isWhitespace( '\\r\\n' );
// returns false
out = isWhitespace( 123 );
