Character Sets

A character set , as represented by a CFCharacterSet object, represents a set of Unicode characters. Functions can use character sets to group characters together for searching and parsing operations, so that they can find or exclude any of a particular set of characters during a search. Aside from testing for membership in a character set, a character-set object simply holds a set of character values to limit operations on strings.
