.. post:: 2016-03-08 :tags: python, unicode :category: Python :excerpt: 1 More Than Just ASCII Digits =========================== Python's `int()` converts more than just ASCII digits. It also converts decimal digits from other scripts. >>> int('42') 42 >>> int(u'୨୩') 23 It's also possible to mix differnt scripts. `int()` only cares about the decimal value of each digit character. >>> int(u'௧౩౩೭') 1337 The following snippet creates CSV data for all digits `int()` can convert: .. code-block:: python #!/usr/bin/env python # coding: utf8 from __future__ import absolute_import, division, print_function import sys import unicodedata def main(): for i in xrange(sys.maxunicode + 1): try: character = unichr(i) value = int(character) except ValueError: pass else: print( u'{0},{1},{2:x},{3}'.format( character, value, i, unicodedata.name(character).lower() ).encode('utf8') ) if __name__ == '__main__': main() And here's the table generated by that script: .. csv-table::
