First time contributor, so correct me if I am wrong!
I think that the '\W' special character should note that this does NOT include the underscore.
For example:
var str = "_james"
if (str[0].search(/\W/) !== -1) - I expected this to return true however it didn't. I needed to add '|| str[i] === "_"' to the conditional.
Could this be mentioned in the docs for clarity?
Thanks.
