Does Not Succeed Symbol Meaning
⊁ is the “DOES NOT SUCCEED” character (Unicode U+2281). In writing, it can represent a statement that something does not succeed or an outcome that fails to happen. Depending on your context, it may be used in logic-like notation, flow or state labels (e.g., “not succeeded”), or documentation where a negative result must be shown clearly. Because it’s a Unicode math symbol, it also fits well into formula text, UI typography, or developer notes that already use specialized symbols. When you need a clear “not succeeded” marker without writing a full phrase, ⊁ is a good fit.
Common uses
- •Status indicators in logs and UI text to show “not succeeded” outcomes
- •Logic or specification documents that require a concise negative outcome symbol
- •Math-adjacent notes in documentation or comments to avoid long wording
- •Flowchart labeling for steps that can fail or not produce the expected result
- •Formulas or proofs where a “does not succeed” condition is referenced
