Wrong result type for ŒG #84

Closed jacobly0 closed 5 years ago

jacobly0 commented 5 years ago

ŒG seems to return a python string instead of a jellified python string (array of length 1 strings), and I can't even figure out a reasonable way to work around it because everything I've tried calls iterable which turns the string into a wrapped string.

Thank you for catching this.

Most calls on Python strings won't work as expected; they break too many things internally.

An easy way to convert a Python string into a Jelly string is ṾḊ, which turns the Python string abc into the Jelly string ”abc (which doesn't make any sense), then chops off the first character.
