U+27ED "⟭" Mathematical Right White Tortoise Shell Bracket Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+27ED "⟭" Mathematical Right White Tortoise Shell Bracket is a typographical symbol used primarily in mathematical notation, representing the closing counterpart of the left white tortoise shell bracket (U+27EC). It is part of the Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-A block and is often employed in specialized mathematical expressions, such as in the notation for Iverson brackets or other formal logic constructs, where it denotes the right boundary of an interval or a grouping. Visually, it resembles a hollow, angular bracket that is opaque or "filled in" on the outside, distinguishing it from its black or solid counterparts. This character supports precise formatting in academic and technical documents, particularly within the field of mathematics.
