Ya (Cyrillic) - Computing Codes

Computing Codes

Uniquely, Unicode provides separate code-points for the Old Cyrillic and civil script forms of this letter; other encodings do not. A number of Old Cyrillic fonts developed before the publication of Unicode 5.1 placed Iotified A Ꙗ ꙗ at the code points for Я я U+042F, U+044F; this was strictly incorrect even then (since ꙗ was not yet included in Unicode, it should have been placed in the Private Use Area); since Unicode 5.1 the code-points for Iotified A Ꙗ ꙗ are U+A656, U+A657 and it should not be encoded anywhere else.

Ya is encoded as follows:

Famous quotes containing the word codes:

    ... until both employers’ and workers’ groups assume responsibility for chastising their own recalcitrant children, they can vainly bay the moon about “ignorant” and “unfair” public criticism. Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
