Superset Of Above Not Equal To Symbol
⫌ denotes “superset of above not equal to” with a distinct mathematical comparison meaning.
U+2ACC
The symbol ⫌ is a mathematical relation used in advanced notation. It combines a “superset” idea with a “not equal to” condition. Use it when you need to express “superset but not equal” in one character.
Superset Of Above Not Equal To Symbol Meaning
⫌ is the Unicode character named “SUPSET OF ABOVE NOT EQUAL TO” (U+2ACC). It represents a strict-style comparison that indicates one set is a superset in the “above” sense while explicitly not being equal to the other. In practical math writing, it’s used to state that all elements of a target set are included, but the sets are not identical. Because it’s a dedicated Unicode symbol, it’s convenient for documents, diagrams, and digital typesetting where you want a single, consistent glyph rather than constructing the relationship from multiple symbols.
Common uses
- •Expressing set relationships in math notes (superset but not equal)
- •Writing logic or proof statements involving strict inclusion
- •Labeling categories or groups in educational diagrams
- •Formulating conditions in technical documentation and specifications
- •Rendering consistent mathematical symbols in web content and UI labels
Examples
⫌ Superset of Above Not Equal To
- ⫌If A ⫌ B, then A contains all elements of B but they are not the same set.
- ⫌The solution set S ⫌ T indicates strict inclusion rather than equality.
- ⫌In set terms, X ⫌ Y rules out the case where X equals Y.
- ⫌For any family F, F ⫌ G means G’s elements are contained in F.
- ⫌Use ⫌ when you need “superset, not equal” in one symbol.
