| retrieve the character code of the character at the current stream position.
peek_code(?Char)
peek_code(+Stream, ?Code)
peek_code/1 retrieves the character code of the character at the stream position of the current input stream.
peek_char/2 retrieves the character code of the character at the stream position of the stream Stream.
The stream position will not be altered by these predicates.
peek_code retrieves the character code of the character at the current stream position and
unifies it with Code. If the stream position is behind the end
of the inputstream,
Code will be unified with -1.
Arguments
Stream text input stream
Code integer (unicode or -1)
Examples
Assume the content of a stream S is abcdefg and the
stream position is at the 1st character.
| peek_code(0'a). |
Succeeds. The stream position will not be altered. |
| peek_char(C). |
Succeeds with substitution(C<-0'a). The stream position will not be altered. |
