## Background
+### Grapheme Clusters
+
In Go, [strings are read-only slices of bytes](https://blog.golang.org/strings). They can be turned into Unicode code points using the `for` loop or by casting: `[]rune(str)`. However, multiple code points may be combined into one user-perceived character or what the Unicode specification calls "grapheme cluster". Here are some examples:
|String|Bytes (UTF-8)|Code points (runes)|Grapheme clusters|

+
+### Word Boundaries
+
+Word boundaries are used in a number of different contexts. The most familiar ones are selection (double-click mouse selection), cursor movement ("move to next word" control-arrow keys), and the dialog option "Whole Word Search" for search and replace. They are also used in database queries, to determine whether elements are within a certain number of words of one another. Searching may also use word boundaries in determining matching items. This package provides tools to determine word boundaries within strings.
+
+### Sentence Boundaries
+
+Sentence boundaries are often used for triple-click or some other method of selecting or iterating through blocks of text that are larger than single words. They are also used to determine whether words occur within the same sentence in database queries. This package provides tools to determine sentence boundaries within strings.
+
+### Line Breaking
+
+Line breaking, also known as word wrapping, is the process of breaking a section of text into lines such that it will fit in the available width of a page, window or other display area. This package provides tools to determine where a string may or may not be broken and where it must be broken (for example after newline characters).

-## Basic Example
+## Examples
+
+### Counting Characters in a String
```go
-package uniseg
+n := uniseg.GraphemeClusterCount("πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ")
+fmt.Println(n)
+// 2
+```

+### Using the [`Graphemes`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rivo/uniseg#Graphemes) Class
- "github.com/rivo/uniseg"
-)
+This is the most convenient method of iterating over grapheme clusters:
+
+```go
+gr := uniseg.NewGraphemes("πŸ‘πŸΌ!")
+for gr.Next() {
+ fmt.Printf("%x ", gr.Runes())
+}
+// [1f44d 1f3fc] [21]
+```
+
+### Using the [`Step`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rivo/uniseg#Step) or [`StepString`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rivo/uniseg#StepString) Function
+
+This is orders of magnitude faster than the `Graphemes` class, but it requires the handling of states and boundaries:
-func main() {
- gr := uniseg.NewGraphemes("πŸ‘πŸΌ!")
- for gr.Next() {
- fmt.Printf("%x ", gr.Runes())
+```go
+str := "πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ"
+state := -1
+var c string
+for len(str) > 0 {
+ c, str, _, state = uniseg.StepString(str, state)
+ fmt.Printf("%x ", []rune(c))
+}
+// [1f1e9 1f1ea] [1f3f3 fe0f 200d 1f308]
+```
+
+### Advanced Examples
+
+Breaking into grapheme clusters and evaluating line breaks:
+
+```go
+str := "First line.\nSecond line."
+state := -1
+var (
+ c string
+ boundaries int
+)
+for len(str) > 0 {
+ c, str, boundaries, state = uniseg.StepString(str, state)
+ fmt.Print(c)
+ if boundaries&uniseg.MaskLine == uniseg.LineCanBreak {
+ fmt.Print("|")
+ } else if boundaries&uniseg.MaskLine == uniseg.LineMustBreak {
+ fmt.Print("β€–")
}
- // Output: [1f44d 1f3fc] [21]
}
+// First |line.
+// β€–Second |line.β€–
```
+If you're only interested in word segmentation, use [`FirstWord`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rivo/uniseg#FirstWord) or [`FirstWordInString`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rivo/uniseg#FirstWordInString):
+
+```go
+str := "Hello, world!"
+state := -1
+var c string
+for len(str) > 0 {
+ c, str, state = uniseg.FirstWordInString(str, state)
+ fmt.Printf("(%s)\n", c)
+}
+// (Hello)
+// (,)
+// ( )
+// (world)
+// (!)
+```
