These functions detect whether a given byte stream is valid UTF-16LE, UTF-16BE, UTF-32LE, or UTF-32BE.

stri_enc_isutf32be(str)
stri_enc_isutf32le(str)
character vector, a raw vector, or
a list of raw
vectors
Returns a logical vector.
These functions are independent of the way R marks encodings in character strings (see Encoding and stringi-encoding). Most often, these functions act on raw vectors.
A result of FALSE
means that a string is surely not valid UTF-16
or UTF-32. However, false positives are possible.
Also note that a data stream may be sometimes classified as both valid UTF-16LE and UTF-16BE.
