I am trying to understand how Perl handles unicode.
use feature qw(say);
use strict;
use warnings;
use Encode qw(encode);
say unpack "H*", pack("U", 0xff);
say unpack "H*", encode( 'UTF-8', chr 0xff );
Output:
ff
c3bf
Why do I get ff and not c3bf when using pack ?
Why do I get ff and not c3bf when using pack ?
This is because pack creates a character string, not a byte string.
> perl -MDevel::Peek -e 'Dump(pack("U", 0xff));'
SV = PV(0x13a6d18) at 0x13d2ce8
REFCNT = 1
FLAGS = (PADTMP,POK,READONLY,pPOK,UTF8)
PV = 0xa6d298 "\303\277"\0 [UTF8 "\x{ff}"]
CUR = 2
LEN = 32
Hence unpack("H*") doesn't look at the byte-value of that string, but the (truncated) character value of it. If you'd do:
say unpack "H*", encode("UTF-8", pack("U", 0xff));
Then you'd get the expected result.

$1 is the value captured by the first capture (()), but you have no captures in your pattern. Fix: /(?<=File `..\/)(.*)(?=')/ Simplified: m{File `../(.*)'} More robust: m{File `../([^']*)'} ...
The chapter of the Perl documentation that deals with this is called perlre. In the extended pattern matching section it explains this. Starting in Perl 5.14, a "^" (caret or circumflex accent) immediately after the "?" is a shorthand equivalent to d-imsx . Flags (except "d" ) may follow the...

Aa the ECMAScript standard defines, valid identifiers must start with a Unicode code point with the Unicode property ID_Start.

I suggest preprocessing the data as you grab it from the webpage instead of extracting it from the string afterwards. You can then use decodeURIComponent() to decode the percent-encoded string: decodeURIComponent('%F0%9F%98%92') Combine that with jQuery to access the data-textvalue-attribute: decodeURIComponent($(element).data('textvalue')) I created a simple example on JSFiddle. For some reason...

Yes, I think so: <div class="menuitem-content">Français</div> the "a" is missing driver.findelement(By.XPath("//div[text()='Françis']")); EDIT: At least in a Java environment Webdriver can handle Unicode. this works for me (driver in this case being an instance of FirefoxDriver): driver.get("https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mot%C3%B6rhead"); WebElement we = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//h1[contains(., Motörhead)]")); System.out.println(driver.getTitle() + "...

I did some benchmarking against three methods. I used an external file for reading (instead of __DATA__). The file consisted of 3 million lines of the exact data you were using. The methods are slurping the file, reading the file line-by line, and using Storable as Sobrique mentioned above. Each...
It doesn't work because .next() returns a String. Instead, read the first character of the string returned. Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); String temp = input.nextLine(); char ch = temp.charAt(0); int a = (int) ch; System.out.println(a); ...
