Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans Math Source: Browser Default

U+228C "" Multiset is a mathematical symbol used in set theory and combinatorics to represent a multiset or bag, which is an unordered collection of elements that allows for duplicates, distinguishing it from a standard set where each element is unique. While the notation for multisets is not universally standardized, this character provides a dedicated glyph for indicating such a structure in formal writing or digital mathematics. It appears in the Unicode block for Mathematical Operators and is often employed in contexts where the multiplicity of elements, not just their presence or absence, is significant.
