* \brief C API: BIDI algorithm
*
* <h2>BIDI algorithm for ICU</h2>
*
* This is an implementation of the Unicode Bidirectional algorithm.
* The algorithm is defined in the
* <a href="http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr9/">Unicode Technical Report 9</a>,
* version 5, also described in The Unicode Standard, Version 3.0 .<p>
*
* Note: Libraries that perform a bidirectional algorithm and
* reorder strings accordingly are sometimes called "Storage Layout Engines".
* ICU's BiDi and shaping (u_shapeArabic()) APIs can be used at the core of such
* "Storage Layout Engines".
*
* <h3>General remarks about the API:</h3>
*
* In functions with an error code parameter,
* the <code>pErrorCode</code> pointer must be valid
* and the value that it points to must not indicate a failure before
* the function call. Otherwise, the function returns immediately.
* After the function call, the value indicates success or failure.<p>
*
* The &quot;limit&quot; of a sequence of characters is the position just after their
* last character, i.e., one more than that position.<p>
*
* Some of the API functions provide access to &quot;runs&quot;.
* Such a &quot;run&quot; is defined as a sequence of characters
* that are at the same embedding level
* after performing the BIDI algorithm.<p>

* <h4> Sample code for the ICU BIDI API </h4>
*
* <h5>Rendering a paragraph with the ICU BiDi API</h5>
*
* This is (hypothetical) sample code that illustrates
* how the ICU BiDi API could be used to render a paragraph of text.
* Rendering code depends highly on the graphics system,
* therefore this sample code must make a lot of assumptions,
* which may or may not match any existing graphics system's properties.
*
* <p>The basic assumptions are:</p>
* <ul>
* <li>Rendering is done from left to right on a horizontal line.</li>
* <li>A run of single-style, unidirectional text can be rendered at once.</li>
* <li>Such a run of text is passed to the graphics system with
* characters (code units) in logical order.</li>
* <li>The line-breaking algorithm is very complicated
* and Locale-dependent -
* and therefore its implementation omitted from this sample code.</li>
* </ul>
