API
codePoint(character)
character: String
Return: Number
If it takes a string as an argument, it returns the same result of character.codePointAt(0).
It throws an error if the argument is not a string or the string is empty.
codePoint('\udada'); //=> 56026
codePoint('\udada\udfdf'); //=> 814047It works even if the String object doesn't have codePointAt method as its prototype.
