Base.UcharSourceUnicode operations.
A Uchar.t represents a Unicode scalar value, which is the basic unit of Unicode.
See also String.Utf* submodules for Unicode support with multiple Uchar.t values encoded in a string.
type uchar := tinclude Comparable.S with type t := tinclude Comparisons.S with type t := tcompare t1 t2 returns 0 if t1 is equal to t2, a negative integer if t1 is less than t2, and a positive integer if t1 is greater than t2.
ascending is identical to compare. descending x y = ascending y x. These are intended to be mnemonic when used like List.sort ~compare:ascending and List.sort ~cmp:descending, since they cause the list to be sorted in ascending or descending order, respectively.
clamp_exn t ~min ~max returns t', the closest value to t such that between t' ~low:min ~high:max is true.
Raises if not (min <= max).
include Pretty_printer.S with type t := tinclude Invariant.S with type t := tsucc_exn t is the scalar value after t in the set of Unicode scalar values, and raises if t = max_value.
pred_exn t is the scalar value before t in the set of Unicode scalar values, and raises if t = min_value.
to_char_exn t is t as a char if it is in the latin-1 character set, and raises otherwise.
int_is_scalar n is true iff n is an Unicode scalar value (i.e., in the ranges 0x0000...0xD7FF or 0xE000...0x10FFFF).
of_scalar_exn n is n as a Unicode scalar value. Raises if not (int_is_scalar i).
