You can have a unicode character literal -- and depending on the language there's no distinction between character and string (at the type level), a character is just a string of length 1.

I was assuming C, where there is a difference.

int main() { printf( "%d %d\n", 'A', "A" ); return 0; }

produces: 65 197730221

since the value of string "A" is its base address.
