A.4.2 Identifiers

C99 Identifier

ucn        ((\\u([[:xdigit:]]{4}))|(\\U([[:xdigit:]]{8})))
nondigit    [_[:alpha:]]
c99_id     ([_[:alpha:]]|{ucn})([_[:alnum:]]|{ucn})*

Technically, the above pattern does not encompass all possible C99 identifiers, since C99 allows for "implementation-defined" characters. In practice, C compilers follow the above pattern, with the addition of the ‘$’ character.
