U+226F "≯" Not Greater-Than Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
≯
U+226F "≯" Not Greater-Than is a mathematical symbol that logically represents the negation of the greater-than relation, meaning it is true when the first value is not greater than the second, which inherently includes cases of being less than or equal to. Visually, it appears as a standard greater-than sign (>) with a short diagonal slash through it, placing it in the category of negated relational operators alongside symbols like "not less than" and "not equal to." This character is used primarily in formal mathematical notation, proofs, and logical expressions to concisely state that one quantity does not exceed another.
