A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various types, many symbols are needed for ...
[a] Like the set of natural numbers, the set of integers is countably infinite. An integer may be regarded as a real number that can be written without a fractional component . For example, 21, 4, 0, and −2048 are integers, while 9.75, 5 + 1 / 2 , 5/4, and √ 2 are not.
As of Unicode version 16.0, there are 155,063 characters with code points, covering 168 modern and historical scripts, as well as multiple symbol sets.This article includes the 1,062 characters in the Multilingual European Character Set 2 subset, and some additional related characters.
The following list includes a decimal expansion and set containing each number, ordered by year of discovery. The column headings may be clicked to sort the table alphabetically, by decimal value, or by set. Explanations of the symbols in the right hand column can be found by clicking on them.
The set of all rational numbers includes the integers since every integer can be written as a fraction with denominator 1. For example −7 can be written −7 / 1 . The symbol for the rational numbers is Q (for quotient), also written .
The last of these notations refers to the union of the collection {:}, where I is an index set and is a set for every . In the case that the index set I is the set of natural numbers , one uses the notation ⋃ i = 1 ∞ A i {\textstyle \bigcup _{i=1}^{\infty }A_{i}} , which is analogous to that of the infinite sums in series.
Unicode originally included a limited set of such letter forms in its Letterlike Symbols block before completing the set of Latin and Greek letter forms in this block beginning in version 3.1. Unicode expressly recommends that these characters not be used in general text as a substitute for presentational markup ; [ 3 ] the letters are ...
