Uppercase [A..Z] (27 glyphs)
Lowercase [a..z] (27 glyphs)
Numerals [0..9] (11 glyphs)
Punctuation [!@#%...] (52 glyphs)
I’m assuming that the ’space’ character is included in each chart (26 letters in the A-Z alphabet e.g.).
Then I thought I could just as well use:
Basic Latin (95 glyphs)
Which would combine the uppercase/lowercase/numerals/punctuation charts. But when I add the first four up (27+27+11+52) it adds up to 117, where ‘basic latin’ shows only 95 characters. It’s probably somewhere in the punctuation chart where I am missing characters in basic latin?
Don’t know how that punctuation chart is build up, but where could I find the rest (117-95=22) of those characters?
Besided ‘Basic Latin’ I also wanted basic european characters like é, ä, ó etc. So I thought I had to add:
Latin I (388 glyphs)
However, Latin I contains characters in the range of range 0×00A1 to 0×00FF, which add up to 95 characters, not 388.
Maybe I’m a bit confused about ‘glyphs’ and ‘characters’? Perhaps they don’t mean the same?
