Glyph for U+27CE
Source: Noto Sans Math

U+27CE Squared Logical And

U+27CE was added in Unicode version 6.0 in 2010. It belongs to the block U+27C0 to U+27EF Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-A in the U+0000 to U+FFFF Basic Multilingual Plane.

This character is a Math Symbol and is commonly used, that is, in no specific script. The character is also known as box min.

The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it acts as Other Neutral. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+27CE forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it.

The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:

In logic, mathematics and linguistics, and () is the truth-functional operator of conjunction or logical conjunction. The logical connective of this operator is typically represented as or & or K (prefix) or × or in which is the most modern and widely used.

The and of a set of operands is true if and only if all of its operands are true, i.e., AB is true if and only if A is true and B is true.

An operand of a conjunction is a conjunct.

Beyond logic, the term "conjunction" also refers to similar concepts in other fields:

  • In natural language, the denotation of expressions such as English "and";
  • In programming languages, the short-circuit and control structure;
  • In set theory, intersection.
  • In lattice theory, logical conjunction (greatest lower bound).
