Source: Browser Default
U+0600 "" Arabic Number Sign is a control character used within the Arabic script to indicate the start of a numeric or enumerative sequence in certain historical and modern textual contexts. Unlike typical punctuation marks, it is not a visible glyph itself but rather an invisible formatting marker that signals to text processing systems that the following characters form a number or a list item. This character is part of the Arabic block in Unicode and is primarily employed for legacy support and specialized text layout, where it helps disambiguate numbers from surrounding text in right-to-left writing systems.
