That doesn't make sense. If you read the first statement "my $x=..." out loud, you'll see it says "character 0xE2, then character 0x82, then character 0xAC". Three characters. On the other hand, my $x = chr(0x20AC); # Look ma, Unicode! say $x.bytes; #3 say $x.chars; #1 -- -Roie v2sw6+7CPhw5ln5pr4/6$ck2ma8+9u7/8LSw2l6Fi2e2+8t4TNDSb8/4Aen4+7g5Za22p7/8 [ http:www.hackerkey.com ]
