Unicode codepoints are 16-bit numbers, usually expressed in hexidecimal (e.g. 0x2032) that represent a unique character. The old ASCII system had 8-bit character representations, which only supported a maximum of 256 different characters. Unicode-16 supports up to 65536 characters, and most known characters world wide are assigned a fixed value in the Unicode-16 system.

See CodepointRange and List for a detailed description on how to list the codepoint ranges you need.
