95
96charinfo() returns a reference to a hash that has the following fields
97as defined by the Unicode standard:
98
99 key
100
101 code code point with at least four hexdigits
102 name name of the character IN UPPER CASE
103 category general category of the character
104 combining classes used in the Canonical Ordering Algorithm
105 bidi bidirectional category
106 decomposition character decomposition mapping
107 decimal if decimal digit this is the integer numeric value
108 digit if digit this is the numeric value
109 numeric if numeric is the integer or rational numeric value
110 mirrored if mirrored in bidirectional text
111 unicode10 Unicode 1.0 name if existed and different
112 comment ISO 10646 comment field
113 upper uppercase equivalent mapping
114 lower lowercase equivalent mapping
115 title titlecase equivalent mapping
116
117 block block the character belongs to (used in \p{In...})
118 script script the character belongs to
119
120If no match is found, a reference to an empty hash is returned.
121
122The C<block> property is the same as returned by charinfo(). It is
123not defined in the Unicode Character Database proper (Chapter 4 of the
124Unicode 3.0 Standard, aka TUS3) but instead in an auxiliary database
125(Chapter 14 of TUS3). Similarly for the C<script> property.
126
127Note that you cannot do (de)composition and casing based solely on the
128above C<decomposition> and C<lower>, C<upper>, C<title>, properties,
129you will need also the compexcl(), casefold(), and casespec() functions.

440=head2 Blocks versus Scripts
441
442The difference between a block and a script is that scripts are closer
443to the linguistic notion of a set of characters required to present
444languages, while block is more of an artifact of the Unicode character
445numbering and separation into blocks of (mostly) 256 characters.
446
447For example the Latin B<script> is spread over several B<blocks>, such
448as C<Basic Latin>, C<Latin 1 Supplement>, C<Latin Extended-A>, and
449C<Latin Extended-B>. On the other hand, the Latin script does not
450contain all the characters of the C<Basic Latin> block (also known as
451the ASCII): it includes only the letters, and not, for example, the digits
452or the punctuation.
453
454For blocks see http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/Blocks.txt
455
456For scripts see UTR #24: http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr24/
457
458=head2 Matching Scripts and Blocks
459
460Scripts are matched with the regular-expression construct
461C<\p{...}> (e.g. C<\p{Tibetan}> matches characters of the Tibetan script),
462while C<\p{In...}> is used for blocks (e.g. C<\p{InTibetan}> matches
463any of the 256 code points in the Tibetan block).
464
465=head2 Code Point Arguments
466
467A I<code point argument> is either a decimal or a hexadecimal scalar
468designating a Unicode character, or C<U+> followed by hexadecimals
469designating a Unicode character. In other words, if you want a code
470point to be interpreted as a hexadecimal number, you must prefix it
471with either C<0x> or C<U+>, because a string like e.g. C<123> will
472be interpreted as a decimal code point. Also note that Unicode is
473B<not> limited to 16 bits (the number of Unicode characters is
474open-ended, in theory unlimited): you may have more than 4 hexdigits.
475
476=head2 charinrange
477
478In addition to using the C<\p{In...}> and C<\P{In...}> constructs, you
479can also test whether a code point is in the I<range> as returned by
480L</charblock> and L</charscript> or as the values of the hash returned
481by L</charblocks> and L</charscripts> by using charinrange():
482
483 use Unicode::UCD qw(charscript charinrange);
484
485 $range = charscript('Hiragana');
486 print "looks like hiragana\n" if charinrange($range, $codepoint);

491
492 use Unicode::UCD 'compexcl';
493
494 my $compexcl = compexcl("09dc");
495
496The compexcl() returns the composition exclusion (that is, if the
497character should not be produced during a precomposition) of the
498character specified by a B<code point argument>.
499
500If there is a composition exclusion for the character, true is
501returned. Otherwise, false is returned.

534
535 use Unicode::UCD 'casefold';
536
537 my $casefold = casefold("00DF");
538
539The casefold() returns the locale-independent case folding of the
540character specified by a B<code point argument>.
541
542If there is a case folding for that character, a reference to a hash
543with the following fields is returned:
544
545 key
546
547 code code point with at least four hexdigits
548 status "C", "F", "S", or "I"
549 mapping one or more codes separated by spaces
550
551The meaning of the I<status> is as follows:
552
553 C common case folding, common mappings shared
554 by both simple and full mappings
555 F full case folding, mappings that cause strings
556 to grow in length. Multiple characters are separated
557 by spaces
558 S simple case folding, mappings to single characters
559 where different from F
560 I special case for dotted uppercase I and
561 dotless lowercase i
562 - If this mapping is included, the result is
563 case-insensitive, but dotless and dotted I's
564 are not distinguished
565 - If this mapping is excluded, the result is not
566 fully case-insensitive, but dotless and dotted
567 I's are distinguished
568
569If there is no case folding for that character, C<undef> is returned.

611
612The casespec() returns the potentially locale-dependent case mapping
613of the character specified by a B<code point argument>. The mapping
614may change the length of the string (which the basic Unicode case
615mappings as returned by charinfo() never do).
616
617If there is a case folding for that character, a reference to a hash
618with the following fields is returned:
619
620 key
621
622 code code point with at least four hexdigits
623 lower lowercase
624 title titlecase
625 upper uppercase
626 condition condition list (may be undef)
627
628The C<condition> is optional. Where present, it consists of one or
629more I<locales> or I<contexts>, separated by spaces (other than as
630used to separate elements, spaces are to be ignored). A condition
631list overrides the normal behavior if all of the listed conditions are
632true. Case distinctions in the condition list are not significant.
633Conditions preceded by "NON_" represent the negation of the condition.
634
635Note that when there are multiple case folding definitions for a
636single code point because of different locales, the value returned by
637casespec() is a hash reference which has the locales as the keys and
638hash references as described above as the values.
639
640A I<locale> is defined as a 2-letter ISO 3166 country code, possibly
641followed by a "_" and a 2-letter ISO language code (possibly followed
642by a "_" and a variant code). You can find the lists of those codes,
643see L<Locale::Country> and L<Locale::Language>.
644
645A I<context> is one of the following choices:
646
647 FINAL The letter is not followed by a letter of
648 general category L (e.g. Ll, Lt, Lu, Lm, or Lo)
649 MODERN The mapping is only used for modern text
650 AFTER_i The last base character was "i" (U+0069)

737named sequences as the keys and the named sequences as strings as
738the values. Otherwise, returns C<undef> or empty list depending

803=head2 Implementation Note
804
805The first use of charinfo() opens a read-only filehandle to the Unicode
806Character Database (the database is included in the Perl distribution).
807The filehandle is then kept open for further queries. In other words,
808if you are wondering where one of your filehandles went, that's where.
