In typography, a star is any of several glyphs with a number of points arrayed within an imaginary circle. A commonly used star symbol is the asterisk.
^Although this character is defined in the Unicode reference as having five points, in some fonts it has a different number. In some, such as Arial Unicode MS, it even has six.[1]
