| | This post is an adapted excerpt from Understanding the Odin Programming Language - the acclaimed eBook on learning Odin and understanding low-level concepts. Visit https://odinbook.com for more information. Text strings in Odin use Unicode. Unicode is a standard that makes it possible to use characters from most languages.

I thought doing this would be an interesting project, and so I came up with Regexl, a high level language for writing regex, that can be used as a simple library.
