RECTIFICATIF TECHNIQUE 2
Technical Corrigendum 2 to International Standard ISO/IEC 10646-1:1993 was prepared by Joint Technical
Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 2, Coded character sets.

4 Definitions
Replace 4.2 (block) with:
4.2 block: A contiguous range of code positions to which a set of characters that share common characteristics,
such as script, are allocated. A block cannot overlap another block. One or more of the code positions within a
block may have no character allocated to it.
Renumber 4.11 to 4.15 as 4.12 to 4.16.
Renumber 4.16 to 4.37 as 4.18 to 4.39 (see Amendment 1).
After 4.10 (code table) insert new definition as follows:
4.11 collection: A set of coded characters which is numbered and named and which consists of those coded
characters whose code positions lie within one or more identified ranges.
NOTE - If any of the identified ranges include code positions to which no character is allocated, the repertoire of the collection will change
if an additional character is assigned to any of those positions at a future amendment of this part of ISO/IEC 10646. However it is
intended that the collection number and name will remain unchanged in future editions of this part of ISO/IEC 10646.

After 4.16 (default state) insert new definition as follows:
4.17 fixed collection: A collection in which every code position within the identified range(s) has a character
allocated to it, and which is intended to remain unchanged in future editions of this part of ISO/IEC 10646.
19 Block names
Replace entire clause with:
Named blocks of contiguous code positions are specified within a plane for the purpose of allocation of characters
sharing some common characteristic, such as script. The blocks specified within the BMP are listed in A.2 of
Annex A, and are illustrated in Figures 3 and 4 (see Amendment 5).
Annex A
Replace Annex A with revised text as on the following pages.
