std::is_signed - cppreference.com

template< class T >
struct is_signed;

(since C++11)

std::is_signed is a UnaryTypeTrait.

Checks whether T is a signed arithmetic type.

If the program adds specializations for std::is_signed or std::is_signed_v, the behavior is undefined.

[edit] Template parameters [edit] Helper variable template

template< class T >
constexpr bool is_signed_v = is_signed<T>::value;

(since C++17) Inherited from std::integral_constant Member constants true if T is a signed arithmetic type, false otherwise
(public static member constant) Member functions converts the object to bool, returns value
(public member function) returns value

[edit] Defect reports

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.

DR Applied to Behavior as published Correct behavior LWG 2197 C++11 value could be true even if T is not an arithmetic type can only be false in this case [edit] See also checks if a type is an unsigned arithmetic type
(class template) [edit] identifies signed types
(public static member constant of std::numeric_limits<T>) [edit] checks if a type is an arithmetic type
(class template) [edit] obtains the corresponding signed type for the given integral type
(class template) [edit] obtains the corresponding signed type for the given integral type
