Description

The lessons on surrogate pairs have been moved from "Datatypes/Strings" to "MIscellaneous/Unicode, String internals" but there are examples mentioning surrogate pairs on the Iterables lesson. It might be confusing for readers who haven't read the lesson on surrogate pairs before hand.

Research direction

Start with the Iterables lesson and locate the examples that mention surrogate pairs. Remove those examples or references so readers are not expected to know the moved surrogate-pairs lesson; the Iterables lesson should no longer contain those mentions.
