New submission from Mark Shoulson:
Python3.4 does not appear to know about the Unicode character U+1F441 EYE,
although it does know about nearby characters which were added to Unicode at
the same time:
>>> "\N{EYES}" # This is character U+1F440
'👀'
>>> "\N{NOSE}" # This is U+1F442
'👃'
>>> "\N{EYE}"
File "<stdin>", line 1
SyntaxError: (unicode error) 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in
position 0-6: unknown Unicode character name
>>> import unicodedata
>>> unicodedata.lookup("EYES")
'👀'
>>> unicodedata.lookup("EYE")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
KeyError: "undefined character name 'EYE'"
>>> unicodedata.name('👀')
'EYES'
>>> unicodedata.name('👁')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: no such name
>>>
