Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-B is a Unicode block containing miscellaneous mathematical symbols, including brackets, angles, and circle symbols.
Block
{{Unicode chart Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-B}}
Some of these symbols are used in Z notation. Specifically
- {{unichar|2981|Z NOTATION SPOT}}
- {{unichar|2982|Z NOTATION TYPE COLON}}
- {{unichar|2987|Z NOTATION LEFT IMAGE BRACKET}}
- {{unichar|2988|Z NOTATION RIGHT IMAGE BRACKET}}
- {{unichar|2989|Z NOTATION LEFT BINDING BRACKET}}
- {{unichar|298A|Z NOTATION RIGHT BINDING BRACKET}}
The last two symbols are used in combinatorial game theory
- {{unichar|29FE|TINY}}
- {{unichar|29FF|MINY}}
