Usage notes
- The number of bytes that constitute a character depends on the type of string
that causes the exception:
- If EBCDIC, one byte corresponds to one character.
- If Unicode, two bytes correspond to one character.
- If UTF-16, two bytes correspond to one character.
- If UTF-8, the relationship between bytes and characters is variable, depending on the code points.
