//
// The Unicode scripts recognized by CLD2 are numbered almost arbitrarily,
// specified in an enum. Each script has human-readable script name and a
// 4-letter ISO 15924 script code. Each has a C name (largely for use by
// programs that generate declarations in cld2_generated_scripts.h). Each
// also has a recognition type
// r_type: 0 script-only, 1 nilgrams, 2 quadgrams, 3 CJK
//
// The declarations for a particular version of Unicode are machine-generated in
// generated_scripts.h
//
// This file includes that one and declares the access routines. The type
// involved is called "ULScript" to signify Unicode Letters-Marks Scripts,
// which are not quite Unicode Scripts. In particular, the CJK scripts are
// merged into a single number because CLD2 recognizes the CJK languages from
// four scripts intermixed: Hani (both Hans and Hant), Hangul, Hiragana, and
// Katakana.
// Each script has one of these four recognition types.
// RTypeNone: There is no language associated with this script. In extended
// language recognition calls, return a fake language number that maps to
// xx-Cham, with literally "xx" for the language code,and with the script
// code instead of "Cham". In non-extended calls, return UNKNOWN_LANGUAGE.
// RTypeOne: The script maps 1:1 to a single language. No letters are examined
// during recognition and no lookups done.
// RTypeMany: The usual quadgram + delta-octagram + distinctive-words scoring
// is done to determine the languages involved.
// RTypeCJK: The CJK unigram + delta-bigram scoring is done to determine the
// languages involved.
//
// Note that the choice of recognition type is a function of script, not
// language. In particular, some languges are recognized in multiple scripts
// and those have different recognition types (Mongolian mn-Latn vs. mn-Mong
// for example).

// The languages recognized by CLD2 are numbered almost arbitrarily,

// The Language enum is intended to match the internal Google Language enum

// languages assigned above that. Over time, some languages may be renumbered

// ------------
// Given the Language, return the language code, e.g. "ko"

// - ISO-639-1 two-letter language code

// - ISO-639-2 three-letter bibliographic language code
// (Tibetan, Dhivehi, Cherokee, Syriac)
// - Google-specific language code
// (ChineseT ("zh-TW"), Teragram Unknown, Unknown,
// Portuguese-Portugal, Portuguese-Brazil, Limbu)
// - Fake RTypeNone names.
