Arabic Digit Delimiter Kind Tool

Identify the literal Unicode Arabic decimal/thousands separator characters without guessing a locale-specific numeric parse.

Description

Classify U+066B, U+066C, ASCII period, and ASCII comma with fixed tokens; return other for remaining characters.

A visible character can contain multiple Unicode code points, and equivalent letters may have composed or decomposed representations. Mark counts differ from grapheme counts or linguistic correctness.

Classify U+066B, U+066C, ASCII period, and ASCII comma with fixed tokens; return other for remaining characters.

When to use this tool

Use Arabic Digit Delimiter Kind when you need a narrowly defined Unicode mark or delimiter check.

How to use the tool and how it works

  1. Enter delimiter. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
  3. Read kind, codePoint. Use the output convention below.

Require exactly one Unicode code point. Classify U+066B, U+066C, ASCII period, and ASCII comma with fixed tokens; return other for remaining characters.1

  "input": {

  }
}

Limitations and assumptions

  • This recognizes delimiter characters only, without parsing numbers or inferring locale-specific punctuation use.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Use Unicode normalization and grapheme-aware comparison where visual equivalence or text editing behavior matters.
