UNICODE function

Unicode number of the first character. UNICODE works in Sheets with the usual arguments and results, on cells and on live data from the tools you connect.

Syntax

=UNICODE(text)
ArgumentUse
textrequired

On live data

In Sheets, UNICODE sits next to live data from a connected tool: =data.orders.sum(total) totals a table, =list.orders(customer) spills a column's distinct values, and a linked table column such as table.orders[Total] is a range any function accepts.
