Unicode Version 17.0
算
U+7B97 "算" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a logogram used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems, where it represents concepts related to calculation, counting, or computing. In Chinese, it is pronounced suàn and appears in words like 计算 (jìsuàn) meaning "to calculate," while in Japanese it is read san or sokoban and features in terms such as 計算 (keisan) for "calculation." The character combines the radical for bamboo (⺮) with a component suggesting eyes or visual focus (目), alluding to the ancient use of bamboo counting rods or abacus beads for arithmetic. It is encoded in the Unicode standard under the CJK Unified Ideographs block, with a stable representation across digital text systems.
