💖 Unicod...hibited(3pm) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, which is literally the perl girlypop collective wiki and this one is Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited — say that three times fast, i dare you 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited — the tables from RFC 3454, Appendix C. that's it, that's the whole vibe. it's giving "i am a data module and i have no thoughts, only ranges" 👑

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C11 # Appendix C.1.1
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C12 # Appendix C.1.2
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C21 # Appendix C.2.1
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C22 # Appendix C.2.2
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C3  # Appendix C.3
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C4  # Appendix C.4
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C5  # Appendix C.5
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C6  # Appendix C.6
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C7  # Appendix C.7
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C8  # Appendix C.8
@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C9  # Appendix C.9

so like, there's eleven of them. eleven little arrays. each one is a different slice of Appendix C and the comments are right there telling you exactly which one, no guessing, we don't do guessing 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

the way these tables work is so simple and i'm obsessed honestly: each one is just an array, and inside that array are pairs of Unicode codepoints (as integers) — the first one is the start of a Unicode range, the second one is the end of that same range. boom. that's the whole structure. pair 'em up, read 'em off, no cap 🌈

🚨 and the plot twist: this module exports nothing. like, nothing nothing. zero. not one symbol. you have to go get those arrays by their full package name with the <pink>@</pink> sigil, they are not sliding into your namespace on their own, bestie 🙈 if you're sitting there wondering why nothing showed up in your symbol table... that's why. it's not a bug, it's the entire design. main character energy that refuses to be imported.
