| Python by name | \N{MATHEMATICAL BOLD SMALL GAMMA} |
| Java, C# | \uD835\uDEC4 |
| Rust, Swift | \u{1D6C4} |
| Go, C, C++ | \U0001D6C4 |
| URL (percent-encoded) | %F0%9D%9B%84 |
JavaScript and JSON strings store text as UTF-16, so this character takes two code units (a surrogate pair) and "π".length is 2. Python 3 strings count code points, so its length there is 1.
