I run the following script :

$a = 160;
$b = 256;

for ($i=$a;$i<=$b;$i++)
{
 $str = join '', $str, pack 'U*', $i;
}

if ($str =~ /(\p{inlatin1supplement}+)/)
{
 print "\$1 : $1\n";
}

on redirecting above o/p to od -tc -tx, $1 has 2 bytes
for all matching code point values (160-255).

If the above test is repeated with $a = 192, $b = 256,
$1 has 1 byte for all matching code point values
(192-255).

Why is this so ?

Thanks in advance,
Rajarshi.
