### Description

public static IntlChar::charDirection ( mixed `$codepoint` ) : int

Returns the bidirectional category value for the code point, which is used in the » Unicode bidirectional algorithm (UAX #9).

> Note:

> Some unassigned code points have bidi values of R or AL because they are in blocks that are reserved for Right-To-Left scripts.

var_dump(IntlChar::charDirection("A") === IntlChar::CHAR_DIRECTION_LEFT_TO_RIGHT);
var_dump(IntlChar::charDirection("\u{05E9}") === IntlChar::CHAR_DIRECTION_RIGHT_TO_LEFT);
var_dump(IntlChar::charDirection("+") === IntlChar::CHAR_DIRECTION_EUROPEAN_NUMBER_SEPARATOR);
var_dump(IntlChar::charDirection(".") === IntlChar::CHAR_DIRECTION_COMMON_NUMBER_SEPARATOR);
?>`
