UnicodeTools - Module for handling unicode tasks

# convert string to A-Za-z letters where relevant
my $str=map2az($str);
# convert string to A-Za-z letter mathematically where relevant
$str=map2azmath($str);A collection of functions to handle various unicode tasks.
This class does not have an instantiator/constructor. Methods are exporeted by default.
Converts string characters to their ASCII a-zA-Z equivalents by looking at the base unicode name.
Accepts these parameters in the following order:
str The string to be mapped to a-zA-Z. SCALAR. Required.
The method ignores characters that do not start with "LATIN [CAPITAL|SMALL LETTER] [A-Z]" and preserve them as they are in the string. The rest is converted to its a-zA-Z equivalent.
Returns the mapped/converted string.
Converts string characters to their ASCII a-zA-Z equivalents by applying a straight-forward mathematical algorithm.
Accepts these parameters in the following order:
str The string to be mapped to a-zA-Z. SCALAR. Required.
The method mathematically forces characters to be converted to the a-ZA-Z space in the ASCII-table. Characters that are already a-zA-Z are ignored. It is "unintelligent" in comparison to the map2az-method.
One option is to run map2az first and then run the map2azmath afterwards to pick up those characters that where not handled intelligently by the map2az-method, thus forcing all characters into the a-zA-Z space of the ASCII-table.
Returns the mapped/converted string.
Hey! The above document had some coding errors, which are explained below:
