What it is and where it’s used: Tie Over Infinity is part of the Symbols family (block: Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-B). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: The character U+29DD is named TIE OVER INFINITY. It sits in the Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-B block. This symbol is a part of the set of mathematical marks used in notation. It appears as a symbol in formulas and in user interfaces that present math ideas. The provided information notes that common math symbols indicate operations or comparisons in formulas and user interfaces. In practice, this means the symbol helps show a relation or a rule between quantities in math text or digital tools. The name and codepoint identify the character for font files, keyboards, and text processing. Users may encounter it when reading technical documents or when using software that supports a wide range of symbols. Because it is grouped with other miscellaneous math symbols, it shares space with many marks that describe structure, limits, or operators. Its exact usage depends on the context of the formula or the interface where it is shown, but it follows the general purpose of signaling a mathematical relation.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+29DD in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
