Mnonononono
Lthey are just data
Mphp strings are just byte arrays
Mand php builtin functions have no notion of encoding
Athat is the case in most languages
Aah
Awell
Aphp is just built different
Lat least with a language like zig which does that, the whole stdlib specifies and only accepts UTF-8 aside from windows functions which need UTF-16 (which isnt stored as byte arrays anyway, so its clearly incompatible)
Mif you do indexOf('ッ') you get a different result depending on the encoding of the source code and the encoding of the string when it was read
Law man i love shift-jis
LGREAT invention
Ltotally hasnt haunted me for years
Mit could be
\xE3 \x83 \x83
\x30 \xC3
or whatever it is in shift-jis
\xE3 \x83 \x83
\x30 \xC3
or whatever it is in shift-jis
Lzig's solution to the problem is: if your source code is not UTF-8 its a compile error
Aas it should
Mgood
Lyup
Aoh yeah
Aside note
Areally annoying thing in rust
Ayou can't index strings
Lis rust
Awhy? because fuck you
Athis is causing me major pain
Mis it bc they are null terminated
Ano
Mwhat
Aits because char is variable in size
Aso
Lwell, what does "index string" mean, codepoints, bytes?
Athat causes problems for some reason
Mfdsouighdfasjgjasdfhghdsfgs
Mwhat encoding is a rust string??
Astring[1]Mdoes its size vary??
Aapparently?? i don't know
Lwhat does that mean?
Achar c = mystring[1]c == 's'Lso you want codepoints?
Lor characters
Acharacters
Lthat isnt a hard fast definition in unicode
Lalso how big is said
chari don't remember its size in rust
Lin rust, chars are unicode scalar value, and are 4 bytes in size
Laccording to the docs
LA character type.
