为什么 Unicode 有几个保留字符代码？
请参阅两种语言的 Unicode -卡纳达语和泰米尔语。两种语言都非常古老，我认为没有机会为这些语言获得新字符。
编辑：那他们为什么要通过保留字符代码来浪费一些字符代码？
为什么他们不将保留字符代码放在每个语言字符集的末尾？

这与 Unicode 联盟如何分配其分配的块、脚本和代码点有关。例如，在 中Block=Tamil，它的开头是这样运行的：
$ unichars '\p{Block=Tamil}' | head -20
U+00B82 ◌ஂ GC=Mn SC=Tamil TAMIL SIGN ANUSVARA
U+00B83 ஃ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL SIGN VISARGA
U+00B85 அ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER A
U+00B86 ஆ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER AA
U+00B87 இ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER I
U+00B88 ஈ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER II
U+00B89 உ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER U
U+00B8A ஊ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER UU
U+00B8E எ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER E
U+00B8F ஏ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER EE
U+00B90 ஐ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER AI
U+00B92 ஒ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER O
U+00B93 ஓ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER OO
U+00B94 ஔ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER AU
U+00B95 க GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER KA
U+00B99 ங GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER NGA
U+00B9A ச GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER CA
U+00B9C ஜ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER JA
U+00B9E ஞ GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER NYA
U+00B9F ட GC=Lo SC=Tamil TAMIL LETTER TTA
他们倾向于为所有相同“种类”的字符保留 4、8 或 16 个代码点的连续行。是的，那里有差距，但这就像文件系统中的情况一样，一旦您将一个扇区（如果您在一个块中没有单独的扇区，则为块）分配给一个文件，即使该文件没有使用其中的所有内容（最终）扇区，您不会将那些未使用的字节赠送给其他进程。无论如何，事情往往会被填充以阻止边界。
这不像我们有任何代码用完的风险。
这是分配区域的开头，以“符号”开头，如该块中第一个分配的代码点所示。间隙可能代表从一种字符到另一种字符的变化。如果您检查块中的前五个代码点的属性，您会看到那些未分配的代码点仍然具有正确的块属性：
$ uniprops -a U+00B80 U+00B81 U+00B82 U+00B83 U+00B84 U+00B85

如果您查看其他分配的块，您会看到同样的事情。将块分割成不相关的东西是没有意义的。
正如我所说，它们并不会用完空间，所以我不知道这里有什么问题。
顺便说一句，您可以从我的Unicode 命令行工具箱中获得 Unicode 探索和处理工具，如 unichars 、 uniprops 、 uninames ，可以 单独从 那里获得，也可以通过CPAN套件获得整个套件。Unicode::Tussle
