an integer value identifying a Unicode code point.
A rune literal is expressed as one or more characters enclosed in single quotes,
as in <code>'x'</code> or <code>'\n'</code>.
Within the quotes, any character may appear except newline and unescaped single
quote. A single quoted character represents the Unicode value
of the character itself,
while multi-character sequences beginning with a backslash encode
values in various formats.
