Superscripts and Subscripts (Unicode block)
Superscripts and Subscripts is a Unicode block containing superscript and subscript numerals, mathematical operators, and letters used in mathematics and phonetics. The use of subscripts and superscripts in Unicode allows any polynomial, chemical and certain other equations to be represented in plain text without using any form of markup like HTML or TeX. Other superscript letters can be found in the Spacing Modifier Letters, Phonetic Extensions and Phonetic Extensions Supplement blocks, while the superscript 1, 2, and 3, inherited from ISO 8859-1, were included in the Latin-1 Supplement block.

gollark: I think the sides work too.
gollark: The reason for the first thing is that remote wrapping/peripheral listing/whatever else is actually implemented in Lua using modems' `callRemote` (and other things), and only descends the "peripheral tree" one level because that's all it has to in vanilla CC.
gollark: The only important constraints I know of is that the OC relay must be directly adjacent to the computer (unless you program around this) and that you can't connect to the top of the 3D printer.
gollark: I think it's just that you can't connect stuff to the top.
gollark: Move items in and out, yes.
