U+226C "" Between is a mathematical symbol that represents the concept of something being between two other values or elements, typically used in set theory and order theory to denote that a certain point lies between two others. Its design visually mimics a short, horizontal line with two vertical bars extending from its middle, suggesting a central position flanked by boundaries. This character is distinct from the more common "less-than" or "greater-than" signs, offering a precise notation for relational operators in formal logic, geometry, and various branches of mathematics where the exact ordering or interval placement of items is critical.
