CODEPOINT

Code point

In character encoding terminology, a code point or code position is any of the numerical values that make up the code space. For example, ASCII comprises 128 code points in the range 0hex to 7Fhex, Extended ASCII comprises 256 code points in the range 0hex to FFhex, and Unicode comprises 1,114,112 code points in the range 0hex to 10FFFFhex. The Unicode code space is divided into seventeen planes, each with 65,536 code points. Thus the total size of the Unicode code space is 17 × 65,536 = 1,114,112.
