==Mathematical Symbols==
 +
 +
This page is a quick reference for the "standard" mathematical symbols in [[HTML]] that should work on most browsers, and is intended mainly for people editing mathematical articles on Wikipedia.
 +
 +
*'''Numbers:''' {{unicode|¼ ½ ¾ ¹ ² ³}} ¼ ½ ¾ ¹ ² ³
 +
*'''Analysis:''' {{unicode|∂ ∫ ∑ ∏ √ ∞ ∇ ℘ ℑ ℜ}} ∂ ∫ ∑ ∏ √ ∞ ∇ ℘ ℑ ℜ
 +
*'''Arrows:''' {{unicode|← ↓ → ↑ ↔ ↵ ⇐ ⇓ ⇒ ⇑ ⇔}} ← ↓ → ↑ ↔ ↵ ⇐ ⇓ ⇒ ⇑ ⇔
 +
*'''Logic:''' {{unicode|¬ ∧ ∨ ∃ ∀}} ¬ ∧ ∨ ∃ ∀
 +
*'''Sets:''' {{unicode|∈ ∉ ∋ ∅ ⊆ ⊇ ⊃ ⊂ ⊄ ∪ ∩ ℵ}} ∈ ∉ ∋ ∅ ⊆ ⊇ ⊃ ⊂ ⊄ ∪ ∩ ℵ
 +
*'''Relations:''' {{unicode|≠ ≤ ≥ < > ≡ ≅ ≈ ∝}} ≠ ≤ ≥ < > ≡ ≅ ≈ ∝
 +
*'''Binary operations:''' {{unicode|± − × ÷ ⁄ ⊥ ⊕ ⊗ ∗}} ± − × ÷ ⁄ ⊥ ⊕ ⊗ ∗
 +
*'''Delimiters:''' {{unicode|⌈ ⌉ ⌊ ⌋ ⟨ ⟩ « »}} ⌈ ⌉ ⌊⌋ ⟨ ⟩ « »
 +
*'''Miscellaneous:''' {{unicode|† ¦ ∠ ∴ ◊ • ♠ ♣ ♥ ♦}}  † ¦ ∠ ∴ ◊ • ♠ ♣ ♥ ♦
 +
*'''Punctuation:''' {{unicode|′ ″ ‾ ˆ ° ⋅ · … – —}} ′ ″ ‾ ˆ ° ⋅ · … – —
 +
*'''Spacing:''' thin ( ), n-width ( ), m-width ( ), and non-breaking spaces ( ).        
 +
*'''Greek:''' α β γ Α Β Γ etc. α β γ Α Β Γ etc.
 +
*'''Unicode:''' ⊢ (for example) gives the character ⊢ with [[unicode]] number x22A2 (hexadecimal). Warning: many of the more obscure unicode characters do not yet work on all browsers.
 +
 +
It might be easier to just copy and paste the symbols instead of using them by reference.
