UTF-32 is a 32-bit encoding where each Unicode code point corresponds to exactly one integer value. This function converts a character vector to a list of integer vectors so that, e.g., individual code points may be easily accessed, changed, etc.
stri_enc_toutf32(str)Returns a list of integer vectors.
Missing values are converted to NULLs.
a character vector (or an object coercible to) to be converted

See stri_enc_fromutf32 for a dual operation.
This function is roughly equivalent to a vectorized call
to utf8ToInt(enc2utf8(str)).
If you want a list of raw vectors on output,
use stri_encode.
Unlike utf8ToInt, if ill-formed UTF-8 byte sequences are detected,
a corresponding element is set to NULL and a warning is generated.
To deal with such issues, use, e.g., stri_enc_toutf8.
