U+2107 "ℇ" Euler Constant Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+2107 "ℇ" Euler Constant is a typographic symbol representing the mathematical constant known as Euler's number, approximately equal to 2.71828, which is the base of the natural logarithm. It is distinct from the more common italic letter 'e' used in mathematical notation, providing a dedicated character for this specific constant to avoid ambiguity in typesetting and digital text. The symbol is part of the Letterlike Symbols block in Unicode, intended for use in mathematical formulas, scientific documents, and other contexts where precise representation of the Euler constant is required. Unlike the cursive Euler constant symbol sometimes seen in handwritten work, the "ℇ" character is a stylized, upright glyph designed for clarity in printed and electronic media.
