(GH-19328) Change the number of code points from a specific number to a link to the latest standard that has a description of how many code points there are. --- diff --git a/Doc/howto/unicode.rst b/Doc/howto/unicode.rst index 4825b39f1506..e948c1e3c662 100644 --- a/Doc/howto/unicode.rst +++ b/Doc/howto/unicode.rst @@ -41,8 +41,9 @@ but these are two different characters that have different meanings. The Unicode standard describes how characters are represented by **code points**. A code point value is an integer in the range 0 to -0x10FFFF (about 1.1 million values, with some 110 thousand assigned so -far). In the standard and in this document, a code point is written +0x10FFFF (about 1.1 million values, the +`actual number assigned `_ +is less than that). In the standard and in this document, a code point is written using the notation ``U+265E`` to mean the character with value ``0x265e`` (9,822 in decimal).
