Top Half Integral Symbol
⌠ is the “top half integral” symbol used mainly in math notation and typesetting.
U+2320
⌠ (U+2320) is known as the top half integral. It’s used when you need only the upper part of an integral sign for specialized layout. This page helps you copy it and use the correct code points in your projects.
Top Half Integral Symbol Meaning
The symbol ⌠ is the “top half integral” (Unicode name: TOP HALF INTEGRAL, U+2320). In mathematical typesetting, it’s commonly used as a partial integral glyph—typically to build custom integral-like expressions or to match vertical spacing in composed symbols. You may see it in well-structured formulas where the lower part is omitted or replaced, such as in stacked layouts or in typography systems that assemble integral notation from separate pieces. Because it’s a distinct Unicode character, it can be easier than faking the symbol with images or styling tricks.
Common uses
- •Building custom integral-style notation in math layouts
- •Designing stacked or spaced equation components where only the top is needed
- •Creating templates for technical writing and documentation
- •Rendering specialized formula decorations in publishing/typography
- •Using a dedicated Unicode character instead of an image for consistency
Examples
⌠ Top Half Integral (U+2320) Symbol
- ⌠∫ 𝑓(x) dx is often typeset differently; ⌠ can appear as a top-only part.
- ⌠In a custom stacked expression: ⌠ 𝑎 to show the upper integral glyph.
- ⌠Typography mockups may use ⌠ as a component alongside a matching lower glyph.
- ⌠Equation builder output might include ⌠ when constructing partial symbols.
- ⌠A math legend or cheat sheet may list ⌠ as “top half integral.”
