I run the following script :
$a = 160;
$b = 256;
for ($i=$a;$i<=$b;$i++)
{
$str = join '', $str, pack 'U*', $i;
}
if ($str =~ /(\p{inlatin1supplement}+)/)
{
print "\$1 : $1\n";
}
on redirecting above o/p to od -tc -tx, $1 has 2 bytes
for all matching code point values (160-255).
If the above test is repeated with $a = 192, $b = 256,
$1 has 1 byte for all matching code point values
(192-255).
Why is this so ?
Thanks in advance,
Rajarshi.
