September 16's Muddiest Point


In the Unicode, there’s a capacity for 31 bits, but only 16 of those bits are used as the plane to represent one character. What happens to the remaining 15? With such a division in bits, how do the bits interact with/relate to each other? Are there possibilities for problems to occur?

  1. I guess the other 15 bits are used to encode another character. That is my best guess. Unicode, may have flaws, but it can represent almost any language imaginable.
