KanjiConfudal is set of unicode characters that are easy to confuse with KanjiRadical and KanjiLiberal.

Number \(n\) of the KanjiConfudal is in range

\( \mathrm{0xF900} \le n < \mathrm{0xFA70} \)

Generator

<?php
include "unichr.t";
for($i=0xf900;$i<0xfA70;$i++){
$a=unichr($i);
if($i%16==0) printf("<br>\nX%04X",$i);
printf(" [[%s]]",$a);
}
echo "\n";
?>

In order to execute the code above,
file unichr.t should be also loaded.

Confusion

Note, that most of software does not make difference between KanjiLiberal and KanjiConfudal; so, it is wain to copypast it to anywhere. This problem is described

In order to get the character is should be specified by its hexadecimal number.

At the default setting of mediawiki, article names with KanjiConfudal characters are not allowed. The clicking on the KanjiConfidal above leads to corresponding partner from the KanjiLiberal set. In particular,
click on 車 (XF902) leads to 車 (X8ECA)
click on 金 (XF90A) leads to 金 (X91D1)
click on 北 (XF963) leads to 北 (X5317)
click on 呂 (XF980) leads to 呂 (X5442) ("Ryo": spine, backbone)
click on 女 (XF981) leads to 女 (X5973)
click on 年 (XF98E) leads to 年 (X5E74) (ねん (nen), year)
click on 六 (XF9D1) leads to 六 (X516D) ("roku", 6)
click on 林 (XF9F4) leads to 林 (X6797) ("Hayashi", wood)
click on 立 (XF9F7) leads to 立 (X7ACB) ("Tatsuru", stand)
click on 什 (XF9FD) leads to 什 (X4EC0) ("じゅう", equipment)
click on 易 (XF9E0) leads to 易 (X6613) ("yasu", easy)
click on 見 (XFA0A) leads to 見 (X898B) (みる、look)
click on 屮 (XFA3C) leads to 屮 (X5C6E)
click on 艹 (XFA5E) leads to 艹 (X8279)
click on 辶 (XFA66) leads to 辶 (X8FB6)
..

No simple relation is found between the number of a KanjiConfudal and the number of the corresponding KanjiLiberal.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CJK_Compatibility_Ideographs CJK Compatibility Ideographs is a Unicode block created to contain Han characters that were encoded in multiple locations in other established character encodings, in addition to their CJK Unified Ideographs assignments, in order to retain round-trip compatibility between Unicode and those encodings. Such encodings include the South Korean KS X 1001:1998 (U+F900–U+FA0B, 268 characters), Taiwanese Big5 (U+FA0C–U+FA0D, 2 characters), Japanese IBM 32 (CP932 variant; U+FA0E–U+FA2D, 32 characters), South Korean KS X 1001:2004 (U+FA2E–U+FA2F, 2 character), Japanese JIS X 0213 (U+FA30–U+FA6A, 59 characters), Japanese ARIB STD-B24 (U+FA6B–U+FA6D, 3 characters) and the North Korean KPS 10721-2000 (U+FA70–U+FAD9, 106 characters) source standards.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARIB_STD_B24_character_set Volume 1 of the Association of Radio Industries and Businesses (ARIB) STD-B24 standard for Broadcast Markup Language[2] specifies, amongst other details, a character encoding for use in Japanese-language broadcasting. It was introduced on 1999-10-26.[2] The latest revision is version 6.3 as of 2016-07-06. // It includes a number of ARIB extended characters (ARIB外字, ARIB gaiji) not found in the base standards (JIS X 0208 and JIS X 0201). It was the source standard for many symbol characters which were added to Unicode, including portions of the Miscellaneous Symbols, Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement and Enclosed Ideographic Supplement blocks.[3] Its contributions partially overlap the Unicode emoji, but were added a year earlier, in Unicode 5.2.[4]
