UTF-16 encoding form

UTF-16 encoding form

The Unicode encoding form that assigns each Unicode scalar value in the ranges U+0000..U+D7FF and U+E000..U+FFFF to a single unsigned 16-bit code unit with the same numeric value as the Unicode scalar value, and that assigns each Unicode scalar value in the range U+10000..U+10FFFF to a surrogate pair.

In UTF-16, the code point sequence <004D, 0430, 4E8C, 10302> is represented as <004D 0430 4E8C D800 DF02>, where corresponds to U+10302.

Because surrogate code points are not Unicode scalar values, isolated UTF-16 code units in the range D800₁₆..DFFF₁₆ are ill-formed.
