- Symbiote 10y ago¼, ¾, ⅕. For etc, start here: http://unicode-search.net/unicode-namesearch.pl?term=fraction http://unicode-search.net/unicode-namesearch.pl?term=fractio... You can use "fraction slash" to make any fraction, using super/subscript numbers: ⁷⁄₃₃
- TazeTSchnitzel 10y agoI thought they were talking about fractions too, but then I realised they're probably talking about fractions of stars.
- Symbiote 10y agoAh, I see. Something like ◔ "CIRCLE WITH UPPER RIGHT QUADRANT BLACK". Someone requested something similar here [1], and someone else made it using CSS here [2]. As the article explains though, it would need to be used in text for the Unicode committee to accept it.

- infogulch 10y agoMaybe that would be a good case for combining characters. digits+/+digits = fraction. Where + is combing character and digits is digit(+digit)
- sanbor 10y agoThey mention that situation in the proposal doc http://files.righto.com/files/half-star-unicode.pdf http://files.righto.com/files/half-star-unicode.pdf Search for the title "Why just half? What about quarters or 13%?".
