// Taken from: https://github.com/rust-bakery/nom/blob/337c2189655b6d329b917767eeab2e0c79ceee76/examples/string.rs
//
//! This example shows an example of how to parse an escaped string. The
//! rules for the string are similar to JSON and rust. A string is:
//!
//! - Enclosed by double quotes
//! - Can contain any raw unescaped code point besides \ and "
//! - Matches the following escape sequences: \b, \f, \n, \r, \t, \", \\, \/
//! - Matches code points like Rust: \u{XXXX}, where XXXX can be up to 6
//!   hex characters
//! - an escape followed by whitespace consumes all whitespace between the
//!   escape and the next non-whitespace character
