Name
str_to_arr() - Turns a UTF-8-encoded string into an array of char numbers.
Synopsis
int *str_to_arr( string s )
Description
Since a UTF-8-encoded string may use multiple bytes of the string to represent a single character, this efun can be used to convert the string into an array with one number for each character.
The resulting array will terminate with 0.
Example
str = "รถ";
str[0] == 195
str[1] == 182
str_to_arr( str ) == ({ 246, 0 })
