U+2287 "⊇" Superset of or Equal To Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⊇
U+2287 "⊇" Superset of or Equal To is a mathematical symbol used in set theory and logic to indicate that one set contains all the elements of another set, including the possibility that the two sets are identical. It represents a relationship where the left-hand set is either a superset of or equal to the right-hand set, contrasting with the strict superset symbol "⊃", which does not allow equality. This character is commonly employed in mathematical notation, computer science, and formal reasoning to denote containment or inclusion when the sets may be equal, ensuring precision in expressions of subset and superset relationships.
