In Unicode, a code block is a named set of contiguous character assignments. Every assigned character is in exactly one code block. Code blocks have an even multiple of 16 code points reserved, some of which may not be assigned.

In future versions of the standard, new code blocks may be defined in the current gaps, and unassigned code points within code blocks may be assigned, but nothing else should change.

The columns in the table below should be interpreted as

  1. The range of code points reserved for this code block
  2. The name of the code block
  3. The total number of code points assigned over the number reserved.
  4. The version, or range of versions, in which characters were assigned to this code block, and the number of characters assigned in that version.
Up to date as of Unicode 5.2.

Code Block (köd blõk) slang

Definition: A state in which a computer programmer has no success in conceiving ideas or logical structure when writing a computer program, regardless of their actual experience or ability with the subject.

Layman's Definition: No matter how hard a programmer tries, they cannot come up with any coding ideas. They can sit at the computer for hours (and days) unable to think of any code to write.

This state can last for a variable length of time and has many external factors which play a role (i.e. stress and current mental state).



Compare with Writer's Block.

The inverse of Code Block is Code Run.
