Remarks

The Unicode Standard defines several properties for Unicode characters, one of which is the character's category. For example, a character might be categorized as an uppercase letter, a lowercase letter, a decimal digit number, a letter number, a connector punctuation, a math symbol, or a currency symbol. Your application can use the character's category to govern string-based operations such as parsing.

The UnicodeCategory enumeration defines categories for Unicode characters. The CharUnicodeInfo class is used to obtain the UnicodeCategory value for a specific character. In addition, the class provides information about the numeric value of Unicode characters. A character's numeric value applies only to numeric characters, which include fractions, subscripts, superscripts, Roman numerals, currency numerators, encircled numbers, and script-specific digits.

For more information on Unicode characters, see the Unicode Standard.

Examples

The following code example shows the values returned by each method for different types of characters.
