I sense the source of your misunderstanding might be rooted in your lack of certain basics about Unicode. You seem to call "a letter" anything which may appear in a text document (a Go source code file is a text document) but this it not true. Maybe that's just a terminological problem, but still the fact is, the Unicode standard calls "letters" a very particular group of things among those the Unicode standard describes. To give a very simplified example, in the text string "foo bar" there are six letters (five distinct) and one space character which is not a letter. The charcter being discussed is not a letter in Unicode, either. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
