ASCII 117 holds lowercase u. In Unicode escape sequences, \u followed by four hex digits represents a code point (\u0041 is A). JavaScript, Java, Python, and JSON all support this syntax, though Python also uses \U with eight digits for code points above U+FFFF. UTF-8, UTF-16, and UTF-32 all begin with the letter u for "Unicode." In HTML, underlines text, though its use is discouraged in favor of CSS text-decoration.
