Suppose I have a Unicode character, and I want to determine the script or
scripts it belongs to.
For example:
U+0033 DIGIT THREE "3" belongs to the script "COMMON";
U+0061 LATIN SMALL LETTER A "a" belongs to the script "LATIN";
U+03BE GREEK SMALL LETTER XI "ΞΎ" belongs to the script "GREEK".
Is this information available from Python?
More about Unicode scripts:

Interestingly, there's issue 6331 "Add unicode script info to the
unicode database". Looks like it didn't make it into Python 3.6.
