Decomposition Type - Fraction

Fraction is a value indicating that a character has been canonically decomposed into a fraction format, such as ½, ¼, or ¾. This decomposition type signifies that the original glyph represents a numeric fraction, and its canonical mapping breaks it down into simpler components, typically a numerator, a fraction slash, and a denominator. When software encounters this value, it understands that the character should be treated as a single semantic unit for numeric purposes, even though its visual representation may be composed of multiple parts. The value helps in searching, sorting, and rendering, ensuring that fraction characters are not incorrectly split or reordered in text processing.
