0x2263

0x2263 is the hexadecimal encoding of the Unicode code point U+2263. It sits in the Mathematical Operators block and is used to encode a binary relational operator in digital text, data interchange, and software that supports Unicode.

The character represented by U+2263 is a mathematical symbol intended to convey a relational relation between two quantities. The exact visual glyph that appears for this code point depends on the font and rendering system being used; some fonts provide a distinct relational symbol, while others may render something that resembles related comparison signs. In plain text and many programming contexts, the code point can be referenced directly as U+2263, or via the hexadecimal escape form, such as ≣ in HTML.

Usage and considerations: U+2263 is employed in documents, datasets, and applications that require precise mathematical notation with Unicode support. When exchanging text data, it is important to ensure that both sender and receiver use a Unicode-capable encoding (such as UTF-8) to avoid misrendering or data loss. On systems lacking proper font support, the symbol may display as a placeholder or another character.
