Hi Alexandru,
Nice post, I recently had to deal with this. There are some cases where destructuring wont work, for example with punctuation.
[..."וְאֵ֗לֶּה"].length ▶ 9
My original code is in clojurescript: gist.github.com/galdolber/1568e767...
In javascript: "וְאֵ֗לֶּה".split(/(\P{Mark}\p{Mark}*)/u).filter((val) => val) ▶ ["וְ", "אֵ֗", "לֶּ", "ה"]
Hi Gal,
That's really interesting, any idea why that might be the case ?
I think is because punctuation symbols are separate unicode characters that are collapsed into the first preceding non-Mark character.
Example: ד ָ דָ
So if you want to count the visible characters, you need to account for the marks.
