  2. Mathematical operators and symbols in Unicode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_operators_and...

    The Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block (U+1D400–U+1D7FF) contains Latin and Greek letters and decimal digits that enable mathematicians to denote different notions with different letter styles. The reserved code points (the "holes") in the alphabetic ranges up to U+1D551 duplicate characters in the Letterlike Symbols block. In order ...

  3. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    In mathematics, exponentiation, denoted b n, is an operation involving two numbers: the base, b, and the exponent or power, n. [1] When n is a positive integer, exponentiation corresponds to repeated multiplication of the base: that is, b n is the product of multiplying n bases: [1] = ⏟.

    However two slightly different definitions are common. 1. A ⊂ B {\displaystyle A\subset B} may mean that A is a subset of B , and is possibly equal to B ; that is, every element of A belongs to B ; expressed as a formula, ∀ x , x ∈ A ⇒ x ∈ B {\displaystyle \forall {}x,\,x\in A\Rightarrow x\in B} .

    The normal way of entering quotation marks in text mode (two back ticks for the left and two apostrophes for the right), such as \text {a ``quoted'' word} will not work correctly. As a workaround, you can use the Unicode left and right quotation mark characters, which are available from the "Symbols" dropdown panel beneath the editor: \text { a ...

    In the third expression, n is the height, but each of the bases is different. Care must be taken when referring to iterated exponentials, as it is common to call expressions of this form iterated exponentiation, which is ambiguous, as this can either mean iterated powers or iterated exponentials .

    It is also the form that is required when using tables of common logarithms. In normalized notation, the exponent n is negative for a number with absolute value between 0 and 1 (e.g. 0.5 is written as 5 × 10 −1). The 10 and exponent are often omitted when the exponent is 0.

    Their superscript forms have been accepted for a future version of the Unicode Standard. The retired letters ƞ and ɼ have also been accepted for a future version of the Unicode Standard. [8] Among para-IPA letters, superscript Sinological ȡ ȴ ȵ ȶ have been accepted for a future version of the Unicode Standard.

  9. Floating-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic

    This position is indicated by the exponent, so floating point can be considered a form of scientific notation. A floating-point system can be used to represent, with a fixed number of digits, numbers of very different orders of magnitude — such as the number of meters between galaxies or between protons in an atom. For this reason, floating ...
