# `Unicode.GraphemeClusterBreak`
[🔗](https://github.com/elixir-unicode/unicode/blob/v1.22.0/lib/unicode/property/grapheme_break.ex#L1)

Functions to introspect Unicode
grapheme cluster breaks for binaries
(Strings) and codepoints.

# `aliases`

Returns a map of aliases for
Unicode grapheme cluster breaks.

An alias is an alternative name
for referring to a grapheme cluster break. Aliases
are resolved by the `fetch/1` and
`get/1` functions.

# `count`

Returns the count of the number of characters
for a given grapheme cluster break.

## Example

    iex> Unicode.GraphemeClusterBreak.count(:prepend)
    27

# `fetch`

Returns the Unicode ranges for
a given grapheme cluster break as a list of
ranges as 2-tuples.

Aliases are resolved by this function.

Returns either `{:ok, range_list}` or
`:error`.

# `get`

Returns the Unicode ranges for
a given grapheme cluster break as a list of
ranges as 2-tuples.

Aliases are resolved by this function.

Returns either `range_list` or
`nil`.

# `grapheme_break`

Returns the grapheme cluster break name(s) for the
given binary or codepoint.

In the case of a codepoint, a single
grapheme cluster break name is returned.

For a binary a list of distinct grapheme cluster break
names represented by the graphemes in
the binary is returned.

# `grapheme_breaks`

Returns the map of Unicode
grapheme cluster breaks.

The grapheme cluster break name is the map
key and a list of codepoint
ranges as tuples as the value.

# `known_grapheme_breaks`

Returns a list of known Unicode
grapheme cluster break names.

This function does not return the
names of any grapheme cluster break aliases.
