Is there a way to list all the characters and names in unicodedata?

Question

I can use unicodedata.name() and unicodedata.lookup() map between characters and their names. But it must be one at a time.

Is there an easy way to get the mapping of all the characters? Thanks.

As far as I know, there is no builtin mapping of all the characters. But you can generate you own easily:

import pandas as pd
mapping = pd.DataFrame({'nums': list(range(0, 0x110000)),
                        'chars': list(map(chr, range(0, 0x110000)))})

Why end at 11001? There are many more code points in Unicode. – tripleee May 10 '19 at 15:53
Good point, it was an arbitrary choice. I've updated the code to give the whole range. – Brendan A. May 10 '19 at 17:09
