Circle With Left Half Black Symbol

There is no legacy Windows Alt code for Circle With Left Half Black because it is not in either the OEM code page 437 or Windows-1252 tables. The Unicode codepoint is U+25D0, which you can use as ◐ in HTML, \25D0 in CSS, or type with Alt+9680 on Windows (BMP only). If your keyboard has no numeric keypad, use the Character Viewer, the HTML entity, or copy the character directly. Circle With Left Half Black is outside both legacy code pages, which is why U+25D0 is the identifier that works across Word, HTML, CSS, Python and JavaScript. Circle With Left Half Black has no named HTML entity, so use the numeric escape ◐ or the hex escape ◐.
