Unicode strings: Difference between revisions

=={{header|LFE}}==

As with Erlang, LFE allows Unicode in comments/data/file names/etc, but not in function or variable names.

Here is example UFT-8 encoding:

<lang lisp>

> (set encoded (binary ("åäö ð" utf8)))

#B(195 165 195 164 195 182 32 195 176)

</lang>

Display it in native Erlang format:

<lang lisp>

> (io:format "~tp~n" (list encoded))

<<"åäö ð"/utf8>>

</lang>

Example UFT-8 decoding:

<lang lisp>

> (unicode:characters_to_list encoded 'utf8)

"åäö ð"

</lang>
