Function std.utf.toUTFindex

Given a UCS index n into str, returns the UTF index. So, n is how many code points into the string the code point is, and the array index of the code unit is returned.

size_t toUTFindex(C) (
  const(C)[] str,
  size_t n
) pure @safe
if (isSomeChar!C);

Example

writeln(toUTFindex(`hello world`, 7)); // 7
writeln(toUTFindex(`hello world`w, 7)); // 7
writeln(toUTFindex(`hello world`d, 7)); // 7

writeln(toUTFindex(`Ma Chérie`, 6)); // 7
writeln(toUTFindex(`Ma Chérie`w, 7)); // 7
writeln(toUTFindex(`Ma Chérie`d, 7)); // 7

writeln(toUTFindex(`さいごの果実 / ミツバチと科学者`, 3)); // 9
writeln(toUTFindex(`さいごの果実 / ミツバチと科学者`w, 9)); // 9
writeln(toUTFindex(`さいごの果実 / ミツバチと科学者`d, 9)); // 9
