//! A character type.
//!
//! The `char` type represents a single character. More specifically, since
//! 'character' isn't a well-defined concept in Unicode, `char` is a '[Unicode
//! scalar value]', which is similar to, but not the same as, a '[Unicode code
//! point]'.
//!
//! [Unicode scalar value]: http://www.unicode.org/glossary/#unicode_scalar_value
//! [Unicode code point]: http://www.unicode.org/glossary/#code_point
//!
//! This module exists for technical reasons, the primary documentation for
//! `char` is directly on [the `char` primitive type](../../std/primitive.char.html)
//! itself.
//!
//! This module is the home of the iterator implementations for the iterators
//! implemented on `char`, as well as some useful constants and conversion
//! functions that convert various types to `char`.
