This was discussed in the last lib meeting and I try to avoid forgetting to open a PR because I think having some docs can help people.

However, I think we need to discuss a little bit if this is enough or if we need to add more clarification? Maybe an example?

Inspiration Source: #84056 (comment)

Including suggestion #99626 (comment) my bad command git close the PR

Hey! It looks like you've submitted a new PR for the library teams!

If this PR contains changes to any rust-lang/rust public library APIs then please comment with @rustbot label +T-libs-api -T-libs to tag it appropriately. If this PR contains changes to any unstable APIs please edit the PR description to add a link to the relevant API Change Proposal or create one if you haven't already. If you're unsure where your change falls no worries, just leave it as is and the reviewer will take a look and make a decision to forward on if necessary.

Examples of T-libs-api changes:

  • Stabilizing library features
  • Introducing insta-stable changes such as new implementations of existing stable traits on existing stable types
  • Introducing new or changing existing unstable library APIs (excluding permanently unstable features / features without a tracking issue)
  • Changing public documentation in ways that create new stability guarantees
  • Changing observable runtime behavior of library APIs

@rustbot rustbot added the T-libs Relevant to the library team, which will review and decide on the PR/issue. label Jul 22, 2022

The code sample could also be updated to include a few number-like things that aren't detected as numeric.

I added your suggestion @the8472 and I think your description is really good to put inside the docs, I have no better way to explain it, maybe if there are any suggestions on the form I can apply them.

I also add an example of a number, and I'm thinking to add a comment like // this is a number in Chinese, and it is evaluated to false because for me it is just another symbol. But not sure that this brings value to the docs.

Perhaps 一, 二, 三 are more intuitive examples even when one is not familiar with chinese characters. The comment can also be a bit shorter like

// chinese numerals are not categorized as numeric

Zero knowledge of Chinese so I put a better char example :) thanks

For @the8472 's concern, I would suggest "This means that" instead of "However". Also it might be good to add a short explanation for what ideographic numbers are. Readers usually aren't unicode experts, know languages that have ideographic numbers, or have read #84056 .

Mh! I agree, but what is the best definition of "ideographic numbers"?

@vincenzopalazzo already adding an example that clarifies what ideographic number is would be nice. Just change it to "ideographic numbers like '三'".

Added also this clarification @est31 thanks!

@vincenzopalazzo This most recent change seems to have lost the much more detailed version you had before.

@joshtriplett Thanks to catch this, I think my remote editor was outdate and did not get update with the last version of the git checkout, but it was my fault because I did not make a double check.

again, thanks!
