//! Comparing strings according to language-dependent conventions.
//!
//! This module is published as its own crate ([`icu_collator`](https://docs.rs/icu_collator/latest/icu_collator/))
//! and as part of the [`icu`](https://docs.rs/icu/latest/icu/) crate. See the latter for more details on the ICU4X project.
//! `Collator` is the main structure of the component. It accepts a set of arguments
//! which allow it to collect necessary data from the data provider, and once
//! instantiated, can be used to compare strings.
//!
//! Refer to the ICU User Guide sections for Collation that give an
//! [introduction](https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/collation/) and explain
//! [basic concepts](https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/collation/concepts.html).
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! As its most basic purpose, `Collator` offers locale-aware ordering:
//!
//! ```
//! use core::cmp::Ordering;
//! use icu::collator::{options::*, *};
//! use icu::locale::locale;
//!
//! let mut options = CollatorOptions::default();
//! options.strength = Some(Strength::Primary);
//! let collator_es =
//!     Collator::try_new(locale!("es-u-co-trad").into(), options).unwrap();
//!
//! // "pollo" > "polvo" in traditional Spanish
//! assert_eq!(collator_es.compare("pollo", "polvo"), Ordering::Greater);
//!
//! let mut options = CollatorOptions::default();
//! options.strength = Some(Strength::Primary);
//! let collator_en = Collator::try_new(locale!("en").into(), options).unwrap();
//!
//! // "pollo" < "polvo" according to English rules
//! assert_eq!(collator_en.compare("pollo", "polvo"), Ordering::Less);
//! ```
//!
//! ## Examples of `CollatorOptions`
//!
//! The [`CollatorOptions`] struct configures specific custom behavior for the `Collator`.  See docs
//! for [`CollatorOptions`] for more details.  Some basic descriptions and examples are below.
//!
//! ## Strength
//!
//! The degree of sensitivity in how to determine that strings are distinct.
//!
//! ```
//! use core::cmp::Ordering;
//! use icu::collator::{options::*, *};
//!
//! // Primary Level
//!
//! let mut options_l1 = CollatorOptions::default();
//! options_l1.strength = Some(Strength::Primary);
//! let collator_l1 =
//!     Collator::try_new(Default::default(), options_l1).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(collator_l1.compare("a", "b"), Ordering::Less); // primary
//! assert_eq!(collator_l1.compare("as", "às"), Ordering::Equal); // secondary
//! assert_eq!(collator_l1.compare("às", "at"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_l1.compare("ao", "Ao"), Ordering::Equal); // tertiary
//! assert_eq!(collator_l1.compare("Ao", "aò"), Ordering::Equal);
//! assert_eq!(collator_l1.compare("A", "Ⓐ"), Ordering::Equal);
//!
//! // Secondary Level
//!
//! let mut options_l2 = CollatorOptions::default();
//! options_l2.strength = Some(Strength::Secondary);
//! let collator_l2 =
//!     Collator::try_new(Default::default(), options_l2).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(collator_l2.compare("a", "b"), Ordering::Less); // primary
//! assert_eq!(collator_l2.compare("as", "às"), Ordering::Less); // secondary
//! assert_eq!(collator_l2.compare("às", "at"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_l2.compare("ao", "Ao"), Ordering::Equal); // tertiary
//! assert_eq!(collator_l2.compare("Ao", "aò"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_l2.compare("A", "Ⓐ"), Ordering::Equal);
//!
//! // Tertiary Level
//!
//! let mut options_l3 = CollatorOptions::default();
//! options_l3.strength = Some(Strength::Tertiary);
//! let collator_l3 =
//!     Collator::try_new(Default::default(), options_l3).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(collator_l3.compare("a", "b"), Ordering::Less); // primary
//! assert_eq!(collator_l3.compare("as", "às"), Ordering::Less); // secondary
//! assert_eq!(collator_l3.compare("às", "at"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_l3.compare("ao", "Ao"), Ordering::Less); // tertiary
//! assert_eq!(collator_l3.compare("Ao", "aò"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_l3.compare("A", "Ⓐ"), Ordering::Less);
//! ```
//!
//! ## Alternate Handling
//!
//! Allows alternate handling for certain customized collation orderings, including the option to
//! ignore the special handling for the strings of such customizations.  Specifically,
//! alternate handling is used to control the handling of the so-called **variable** characters in the
//! Unicode Collation Algorithm: whitespace, punctuation and symbols.
//!
//! Note that `AlternateHandling::ShiftTrimmed` and `AlternateHandling::Blanked` are
//! unimplemented. The default is `AlternateHandling::NonIgnorable`, except
//! for Thai, whose default is `AlternateHandling::Shifted`.
//!
//! ```
//! use core::cmp::Ordering;
//! use icu::collator::{*, options::*};
//!
//! // If alternate handling is set to `NonIgnorable`, then differences among
//! // these characters are of the same importance as differences among letters.
//!
//! let mut options_3n = CollatorOptions::default();
//! options_3n.strength = Some(Strength::Tertiary);
//! options_3n.alternate_handling = Some(AlternateHandling::NonIgnorable);
//! let collator_3n =
//!     Collator::try_new(Default::default(), options_3n).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(collator_3n.compare("di Silva", "Di Silva"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_3n.compare("Di Silva", "diSilva"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_3n.compare("diSilva", "U.S.A."), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_3n.compare("U.S.A.", "USA"), Ordering::Less);
//!
//! // If alternate handling is set to `Shifted`, then these characters are of only minor
//! // importance. The Shifted value is often used in combination with Strength
//! // set to Quaternary.
//!
//! let mut options_3s = CollatorOptions::default();
//! options_3s.strength = Some(Strength::Tertiary);
//! options_3s.alternate_handling = Some(AlternateHandling::Shifted);
//! let collator_3s =
//!     Collator::try_new(Default::default(), options_3s).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(collator_3s.compare("di Silva", "diSilva"), Ordering::Equal);
//! assert_eq!(collator_3s.compare("diSilva", "Di Silva"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_3s.compare("Di Silva", "U.S.A."), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_3s.compare("U.S.A.", "USA"), Ordering::Equal);
//!
//! let mut options_4s = CollatorOptions::default();
//! options_4s.strength = Some(Strength::Quaternary);
//! options_4s.alternate_handling = Some(AlternateHandling::Shifted);
//! let collator_4s =
//!     Collator::try_new(Default::default(), options_4s).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(collator_4s.compare("di Silva", "diSilva"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_4s.compare("diSilva", "Di Silva"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_4s.compare("Di Silva", "U.S.A."), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(collator_4s.compare("U.S.A.", "USA"), Ordering::Less);
//! ```
//!
//! ## Case Level
//!
//! Whether to distinguish case in sorting, even for sorting levels higher than tertiary,
//! without having to use tertiary level just to enable case level differences.
//!
//! ```
//! use core::cmp::Ordering;
//! use icu::collator::{*, options::*};
//!
//! // Primary
//!
//! let mut options = CollatorOptions::default();
//! options.strength = Some(Strength::Primary);
//! options.case_level = Some(CaseLevel::Off);
//! let primary =
//!   Collator::try_new(Default::default(),
//!                     options).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(primary.compare("ⓓⓔⓐⓛ", "DEAL"), Ordering::Equal);
//! assert_eq!(primary.compare("dejavu", "dejAvu"), Ordering::Equal);
//! assert_eq!(primary.compare("dejavu", "déjavu"), Ordering::Equal);
//!
//! // Primary with case level on
//!
//! options.strength = Some(Strength::Primary);
//! options.case_level = Some(CaseLevel::On);
//! let primary_and_case =
//!   Collator::try_new(Default::default(),
//!                     options).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(primary_and_case.compare("ⓓⓔⓐⓛ", "DEAL"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(primary_and_case.compare("dejavu", "dejAvu"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(primary_and_case.compare("dejavu", "déjavu"), Ordering::Equal);
//!
//! // Secondary with case level on
//!
//! options.strength = Some(Strength::Secondary);
//! options.case_level = Some(CaseLevel::On);
//! let secondary_and_case =
//!   Collator::try_new(Default::default(),
//!                     options).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(secondary_and_case.compare("ⓓⓔⓐⓛ", "DEAL"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(secondary_and_case.compare("dejavu", "dejAvu"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(secondary_and_case.compare("dejavu", "déjavu"), Ordering::Less);  // secondary difference
//!
//! // Tertiary
//!
//! options.strength = Some(Strength::Tertiary);
//! options.case_level = Some(CaseLevel::Off);
//! let tertiary =
//!   Collator::try_new(Default::default(),
//!                     options).unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(tertiary.compare("ⓓⓔⓐⓛ", "DEAL"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(tertiary.compare("dejavu", "dejAvu"), Ordering::Less);
//! assert_eq!(tertiary.compare("dejavu", "déjavu"), Ordering::Less);
//! ```
//!
//!
//! ## Backward second level
//!
//! Compare the second level in backward order. The default is `false` (off), except for Canadian
//! French.
//!
//! ## Examples of `CollatorPreferences`
//!
//! The [`CollatorPreferences`] struct configures specific custom behavior for the `Collator`, like
//! [`CollatorOptions`]. However, unlike `CollatorOptions`, this set of preferences can also be set
//! implicitly by the locale. See docs for [`CollatorPreferences`] for more details.
//! Some basic descriptions and examples are below.
//!
//! ## Case First
//!
//! Whether to swap the ordering of uppercase and lowercase.
//!
//! ```
//! use core::cmp::Ordering;
//! use icu::collator::preferences::*;
//! use icu::collator::{options::*, *};
//!
//! // Use the locale's default.
//!
//! let mut prefs_no_case = CollatorPreferences::default();
//! prefs_no_case.case_first = Some(CollationCaseFirst::False);
//! let collator_no_case =
//!     Collator::try_new(prefs_no_case, Default::default()).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(collator_no_case.compare("ab", "AB"), Ordering::Less);
//!
//! // Lowercase is less
//!
//! let mut prefs_lower_less = CollatorPreferences::default();
//! prefs_lower_less.case_first = Some(CollationCaseFirst::Lower);
//! let collator_lower_less =
//!     Collator::try_new(prefs_lower_less, Default::default()).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(collator_lower_less.compare("ab", "AB"), Ordering::Less);
//!
//! // Uppercase is less
//!
//! let mut prefs_upper_greater = CollatorPreferences::default();
//! prefs_upper_greater.case_first = Some(CollationCaseFirst::Upper);
//! let collator_upper_greater =
//!     Collator::try_new(prefs_upper_greater, Default::default()).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(collator_upper_greater.compare("AB", "ab"), Ordering::Less);
//! ```
//!
//! ## Numeric
//!
//! When set to `true` (on), any sequence of decimal
//! digits is sorted at a primary level according to the
//! numeric value.
//!
//! ```
//! use core::cmp::Ordering;
//! use icu::collator::preferences::*;
//! use icu::collator::{options::*, *};
//!
//! // Numerical sorting off
//!
//! let mut prefs_num_off = CollatorPreferences::default();
//! prefs_num_off.numeric_ordering = Some(CollationNumericOrdering::False);
//! let collator_num_off =
//!     Collator::try_new(prefs_num_off, Default::default()).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(collator_num_off.compare("a10b", "a2b"), Ordering::Less);
//!
//! // Numerical sorting on
//!
//! let mut prefs_num_on = CollatorPreferences::default();
//! prefs_num_on.numeric_ordering = Some(CollationNumericOrdering::True);
//! let collator_num_on =
//!     Collator::try_new(prefs_num_on, Default::default()).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(collator_num_on.compare("a10b", "a2b"), Ordering::Greater);
//! ```
