Unicode Version 17.0
U+27C5 "⟅" Left S-Shaped Bag Delimiter is a specialized punctuation symbol used in mathematical notation, particularly within the field of type theory and formal logic, to denote the left side of an S-shaped bag or container that encloses a sequence of terms or expressions. It belongs to the block of Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-A and is designed to pair with its right counterpart, U+27C6 "⟆", to visually represent a bag structure that is distinct from ordinary parentheses or brackets, often indicating a multiset or an unordered collection with possible repetitions.
