\title{Check If a Data Stream Is Possibly in UTF-8}
\usage{
stri_enc_isutf8(str)
}
\arguments{
\item{str}{character vector, a raw vector, or
a list of \code{raw} vectors}
}
\value{
Returns a logical vector.
Its i-th element indicates whether the i-th string
corresponds to a valid UTF-8 byte sequence.
}
\description{
The function checks whether given sequences of bytes forms
a proper UTF-8 string.
}
\details{
\code{FALSE} means that a string is certainly not valid UTF-8.
However, false positives are possible. For instance,
\code{(c4,85)} represents ('a with ogonek') in UTF-8
as well as ('A umlaut', 'Ellipsis') in WINDOWS-1250.
Also note that UTF-8, as well as most 8-bit encodings, extend ASCII
(note that \code{\link{stri_enc_isascii}} implies that
\code{\link{stri_enc_isutf8}}).
However, the longer the sequence,
the greater the possibility that the result
is indeed in UTF-8 -- this is because not all sequences of bytes
are valid UTF-8.
This function is independent of the way \R marks encodings in
character strings (see \link{Encoding} and \link{stringi-encoding}).
}
\examples{
stri_enc_isutf8(letters[1:3])
stri_enc_isutf8('\u0105\u0104')
stri_enc_isutf8('\u1234\u0222')
}
