Unicode® Version 2.1 Character Counts

The "Code Point Type" column specifies either a type of code point being counted, a type of assigned character with a particular code point type, or a label for a summation row. The "Count" column gives the total of characters (or code points) for this version. The "Delta" column gives the change in count for this row from the previous version. Rows that provide subtotals or totals are highlighted in the table. For an explanation of terminology related to code point types, see Section 2.4, Code Points and Characters in the core specification.
