1//! Utilities for the `char` primitive type.
2//!
3//! *[See also the `char` primitive type](primitive@char).*
4//!
5//! The `char` type represents a single character. More specifically, since
6//! 'character' isn't a well-defined concept in Unicode, `char` is a '[Unicode
7//! scalar value]', which is similar to, but not the same as, a '[Unicode code
8//! point]'.
9//!
10//! [Unicode scalar value]: https://www.unicode.org/glossary/#unicode_scalar_value
11//! [Unicode code point]: https://www.unicode.org/glossary/#code_point
12//!
13//! This module exists for technical reasons, the primary documentation for
14//! `char` is directly on [the `char` primitive type][char] itself.
15//!
16//! This module is the home of the iterator implementations for the iterators
17//! implemented on `char`, as well as some useful constants and conversion
18//! functions that convert various types to `char`.
