U+22DD was added to Unicode in version 1.1 (1993). It belongs to the block Mathematical Operators 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. It has a Neutral East Asian Width. In bidirectional context it acts as Other Neutral and is mirrored. Its corresponding mirrored glyph is . In text U+22DD behaves as Alphabetic regarding line breaks. It has
type Other for sentence and Other for word breaks. The Grapheme Cluster Break is Any.
The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:
- Not to be confused with Inequation. "Less than", "Greater than", and "More than" redirect here. For the use of the "<" and ">" signs as punctuation, see Bracket. For the UK insurance brand "More Th>n", see RSA Insurance Group.
In mathematics, an inequality is a relation that holds between two values when they are different (see also: equality).
- The notation a ≠ b means that a is not equal to b.
It does not say that one is greater than the other, or even that they can be compared in size.
If the values in question are elements of an ordered set, such as the integers or the real numbers, they can be compared in size.
- The notation a < b means that a is less than b.
- The notation a > b means that a is greater than b.
In either case, a is not equal to b. These relations are known as strict inequalities. The notation a < b may also be read as "a is strictly less than b".
In contrast to strict inequalities, there are two types of inequality relations that are not strict:
- The notation a ≤ b means that a is less than or equal to b (or, equivalently, not greater than b, or at most b).
- The notation a ≥ b means that a is greater than or equal to b (or, equivalently, not less than b, or at least b).
An additional use of the notation is to show that one quantity is much greater than another, normally by several orders of magnitude.
- The notation a ≪ b means that a is much less than b. (In measure theory, however, this notation is used for absolute continuity, an unrelated concept.)
- The notation a ≫ b means that a is much greater than b.
