Unicode is a character encoding standard that assigns a unique number (code point) to every character in almost all of the world's writing systems. Unicode currently contains over 140,000 characters.
Unicode code points are typically written as U+XXXX where XXXX is a hexadecimal number. For example, the letter A has code point U+0041.
