Not sure if this belongs here or golang-dev, but... I'm copying the unicode/utf8 and unicode/utf16 tests for my own C library that also deals with UTF-8 and UTF-16 (because why not), and there's one thing I'm confused about in the former:
https://github.com/golang/go/blob/d2951740303587fc0c5d14cb5461e39b099e6695/src/unicode/utf8/utf8_test.go#L143-L152 // there's an extra byte that bytes left behind - make sure trailing byte works r, size = DecodeRune(b[0:cap(b)]) if r != m.r || size != len(b) { t.Errorf("DecodeRune(%q) = %#04x, %d want %#04x, %d", b, r, size, m.r, len(b)) } s = m.str + "\x00" r, size = DecodeRuneInString(s) if r != m.r || size != len(b) { t.Errorf("DecodeRuneInString(%q) = %#04x, %d want %#04x, %d", s, r, size, m.r, len(b)) } What is this supposed to be doing? I tried going through the git history to find any context and the only thing I can figure is that there are lots of leftovers from super early Go (in fact, this whole test suite is full of them...). In particular, shouldn't the first line there not be different from just the test on b? Or is there something more subtle?
