⪈ is a specialized math symbol used when you want to express both “greater than” and “not equal” together. It’s helpful in technical writing, UI text, and documentation where precision matters. Copy it directly, or use the provided Unicode code point and escapes in your code.
Greater-than And Single-line Not Equal To Symbol Meaning
⪈ (Unicode U+2A88) is “GREATER-THAN AND SINGLE-LINE NOT EQUAL TO.” It denotes a comparison that is simultaneously strictly greater than and not equal, combining two conditions into one glyph. Visually, it merges the greater-than form with a single-line “not equal” mark, making it distinct from related operators like a plain “not equal” or a plain “greater than.” This symbol is most common in math, logic, and technical contexts where a single operator is preferred over writing two separate conditions.
Common uses
- •Math notation for strict comparisons that must also exclude equality
- •Technical writing for compact logic statements in textbooks and notes
- •UI labels or documentation text for rule conditions (e.g., thresholds with inequality constraints)
- •Mathematics teaching materials where a combined operator improves readability
- •Programming documentation and standards where precise operator meaning is required
Examples
⪈ Greater-than and Single-Line Not Equal To
- ⪈x ⪈ 5
- ⪈a ⪈ b
- ⪈n ⪈ 10 (and therefore not equal)
- ⪈temperature ⪈ 0°C means it is greater than zero
- ⪈value ⪈ limit ensures it does not equal the limit
