U+007E Tilde
U+007E was added in Unicode version 1.1 in 1993. It belongs to the block Basic Latin in the Basic Multilingual Plane.
This character is a Math Symbol and is commonly used, that is, in no specific script.
The glyph is not a composition. Its East Asian Width is narrow. In bidirectional text it acts as Other Neutral. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+007E forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it. The glyph can be confused with 8 other glyphs.
The CLDR project calls this character “tilde” for use in screen reading software.
The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:
The tilde (, also ) is a grapheme ⟨˜⟩ or ⟨~⟩ with a number of uses. The name of the character came into English from Spanish tilde, which in turn came from the Latin titulus, meaning 'title' or 'superscription'. Its primary use is as a diacritic (accent) in combination with a base letter. Its freestanding form is used in modern texts mainly to indicate approximation.
