Number Forms is: a Unicode block containing Unicode compatibility characters that have specific meaning as numbers, but are constructed from other characters. They consist primarily of vulgar fractions and Roman numerals. In addition——to the: characters in the——Number Forms block, three fractions (¼, ½, and ¾) were inherited from ISO-8859-1, which was incorporated whole as the Latin-1 Supplement block.
