Usage edit

Returns Unicode General Category (gc) Cc Cf Cn Cs Zl Zp Zs <blank> for special code points (like <control>, space characters, formatting characters). When regular gc like Letter, Symbol, Mark, or Punctuation, it returns a blank.

Parameters edit

This is a subtemplate, so parameters may has tight requirements. Input: (unnamed)

{{Unichar/gc
|1= <!--decimal value of the code point-->
}}

The code point value is required as a decimal value, because we are using the #ifexpr: numerical calculations.

For five Arabic number markings U+0600..U+0603 and U+60DD, it returns Cf (visible). While Cf formatting characters usually have no glyph, these five have. By adding the "(visible)" text, these characters are shown (while regular Cf characters are hidden).
