List of all Unicode's open/close brackets

Question

What is a list of every Unicode bracket-like characters (including, for example: {}[]()<>)? What is a good way to search for Unicode characters?

Gorton

This post is the second result for "unicode brackets". The first is an actual list (archive). – Mahone

Answer 1

There is a plain-text database of information about every Unicode character available from the Unicode Consortium; the format is described in Unicode Annex #44. The primary information is contained in UnicodeData.txt. Open and close punctuation characters are denoted with Ps (punctuation start) and Pe (punctuation end) in the General_Category field (the third field, delimited by ;). Look for those character, and you'll find what you're looking for.

Note that not all characters that you consider brackets may be listed; for instance, quotation marks (including "«»"). are indicated with Pi and Pf (initial and final punctuation), so you might want to include those as well. And some character, like < and >, are used as brackets in some contexts (such as HTML/XML), while they are considered math symbols (Sm) in UnicodeData.txt. Those you are going to have to find by hand; there is no pre-determined listing of those.

Here's a quick Bash script to get this information, and its output. I've included both brackets and quotes. (note: on some Bash implementations UTF-8 printing has a bug that causes it to print U+00AB "«" and U+00BB "»" as "?", and some terminals don't have the ability to render all characters correctly.)

while IFS=';' read number name category rest
do 
    if [[ "$category" =~ Ps|Pe|Pi|Pf ]]
    then 
        printf "%s (U+%s, %s): \u"$number"\n" "$name" "$number" "$category"
    fi
done <UnicodeData.txt

For ease of use, I put this list up as a gist. – Remission

@ClayBridges Thanks! While you're at it, you should be sure to fix the problem that I pointed out where Bash had trouble with U+00AB "«" and U+00BB "»". I didn't bother to manually edit the list because I was just using this as an example of parsing the list, but if you're going to present a separate list you should probably fix it. – Goss

You probably also want to include things like ⋘ (VERY MUCH LESS-THAN), which is categorised as Sm (Symbol, Math). And ⚟ THREE LINES CONVERGING LEFT. – Antonomasia

As I said in my answer: "some characters, like < and >, are used as brackets in some contexts, while they are considered math symbols in UnicodeData.txt. Those you are going to have to find by hand; there is no pre-determined listing of those." The characters that you mention fall into that category; they are not intended for use as brackets, but could possibly be used as such. VERY MUCH LESS-THAN is a comparison operator, not a bracket, similar to LESS THAN (<), which is also an operator but due to the limited ASCII character set has also been reused as an angle bracket. – Goss

The plain-text database now has two files listing all mirrored characters: BidiBrackets.txt and a BidiMirroring.txt. One of them lists brackets only, while one also lists other characters like ≤ and ≥. – Anglophobia

Let me indeed mention that some people use $<x,y>$ to denote scalar product, but this is wrong and ugly, the spacing will be wrong since <> are operators and are spaced as such; the correct (La)TeX is $\langle x,y\rangle $. – Bourguiba

What about ＞ (U+FF1E), Full width greater than sign, different from >? – Entrechat

MEDIUM LEFT PARENTHESIS ORNAMENT - for all those times Linux just refuses to add a normal bracket in! – Hughett

Answer 2

There's no canonical list of this in Unicode—you'll have to define your own list. You could start by using Python's unicodedata module to explore the Unicode database. Note that this won't find things like <> that are used as braces even though they have other official meanings, namely as less-than and greater-than signs.

#!/usr/bin/env python2.7

import re
import unicodedata

for i in range(0x10000):
    char = unichr(i)
    category = unicodedata.category(char)
    name = unicodedata.name(char, '')
    if ('bracket' in name.lower() or 'paren' in name.lower()
            or category in ['Ps', 'Pe']):
        print 'U+%04x %s %s %c' % (i, category, name, char)

Output:

You might want to include 'brace' in your list of terms too. I think there are a couple. Maybe 'Ps' | 'Pe' catches them, though. – Degression

Answer 3

Recent Unicode releases have added a property Bidi_Paired_Bracket that gives what Unicode thinks is the answer to this question. This is different from the ones that are mirrored. There are 60 bracket-pairs as of Unicode 8.0.

The following table maps each to its mate. The first column gives a code point; the second gives the Unicode version it was introduced in; the third shows the mapping, and the final column gives the mapping by character name.

Also, for looking at the Unicode character database, Perl5 is packaged with the module Unicode::UCD, with many functions for inspecting things, including new ones in Perl v5.22 that will output the value of all properties for a given code point. Unicode::Tussle on CPAN offers similar and other functionality.

Answer 4

If you want to pick up characters like < and > that are not formally considered grouping symbols you could take a look at http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/BidiMirroring.txt as suggested by @roeland here. That file lists all pairs of characters which should be mirror images of each other.

What is a good way to search for unicode characters?

This - obviously - depends on what exactly you plan to do. I build the website http://write-math.com. During my bachelors thesis, I created a symbol classifier (which is now on this website under "classify") which gives users the possibility to draw a symbol and get the LaTeX / unicode result (currently only 369 symbols are supported). This is very nice if you want to typeset a document and search single, specific characters of which you know how they look like / how they are called but not how to write them with LaTeX (or whatever you use for typesetting):

It also has a symbol search feature. It's still in heavy development, but there are 1166 symbols in this database.

For your brackets:

• http://www.martin-thoma.de/write-math/search/?search=bracket
• http://www.martin-thoma.de/write-math/search/?search=parenthesis

unicode.xml (from http://www.w3.org/2003/entities/2007doc/#source) is also worth a try.

Wow, I think that is quite interesting. Good job! – Caracas

Answer 6

The idea of “bracket-like” characters might be more or less be identified with the General Category (gc) property values of Ps (Punctuation, open) and Pe (Punctuation, close). This category contains a few dozens of paired punctuation marks, mostly excluding quotation marks (categories Pi and Pf).

In programming, many languages have tools for testing for the General Category of a character, e.g. \p{Ps} in Perl.

If you just need some lists, you could use the Unicode Character Categories information at fileformat.info.

Generally, the way to search for Unicode characters depends on what you are looking for and on your criteria. General Category is a good starting point in many cases.

Answer 7

http://xahlee.info/comp/unicode_matching_brackets.html

This is an excellent and very comprehensive website (for brackets and everything else too), and it looks like they display them all using Arial, sans-serif, so if you can see the character, then it should work with good browser support.

Answer 8

Because andrewdotn's answer uses Python 2, here's the Python 3 version:

import re
import unicodedata

for i in range(0x10000):
    char = chr(i)
    category = unicodedata.category(char)
    name = unicodedata.name(char, '')
    if ('bracket' in name.lower() or 'paren' in name.lower()
            or category in ['Ps', 'Pe']):
        print('U+%04x %s %s %c' % (i, category, name, char))
