U+FF1E "＞" Fullwidth Greater-than Sign Unicode Character

U+FF1E "＞" Fullwidth Greater-than Sign is a typographic variant of the standard greater-than symbol designed for use in monospaced or double-width character sets, primarily for compatibility with East Asian text systems where characters occupy a full square width. It belongs to the Fullwidth Forms block in Unicode, which maps to the ASCII range by substituting each halfwidth character with a visually equivalent fullwidth counterpart. Unlike the regular less-than sign at U+003C, this version ensures uniform spacing when mixed with CJK ideographs, making it commonly used in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean text for mathematical expressions, comparisons, or formatting in environments like terminal emulators and programming contexts.
