Mathematical Operators
Mathematical Operators is a Unicode block containing characters for mathematical, logical, and set notation.
Notably absent are the plus sign, greater than sign and less than sign, due to them already appearing in the Basic Latin Unicode block, and the plus-or-minus sign, multiplication sign and obelus, due to them already appearing in the Latin-1 Supplement block, although a distinct minus sign is included, differing from the Basic Latin hyphen-minus.

U+2272 LESS-THAN OR EQUIVALENT TO | following the slant of the lower leg | ||
U+2273 GREATER-THAN OR EQUIVALENT TO | following the slant of the lower leg | ||
U+228A SUBSET OF WITH NOT EQUAL TO | with stroke through bottom members | ||
U+228B SUPERSET OF WITH NOT EQUAL TO | with stroke through bottom members | ||
