Please imagine that you need to search for the symbol "int"
(or any other symbol longer than the single-character "i").
How then you would be able to type the whole symbol "int"
if the search failed after typing the first character "i"
(or moved to the first occurrence of the symbol "i"
when you need to find the symbol "int")?
