ctype_alnum -- Check for alphanumeric character(s)

## Description

bool ctype_alnum ( string text)

Returns `TRUE` if every character in `text` is either a letter or a digit, `FALSE` otherwise. In the standard `C` locale letters are just `[A-Za-z]`. The function is equivalent to `(ctype_alpha($text) || ctype_digit($text))`.
