History & usage: SUCCEEDS ABOVE NOT ALMOST EQUAL TO is a symbol in the Supplemental Mathematical Operators block. It is included in the Unicode set and is treated as a common math symbol. The name in English helps users recognize its role in formulas and text. In many documents, software, and user interfaces, it signals a type of operation or a comparison between items. The symbol is used when a relation needs to show a specific order or dependence, without implying exact equality. Its appearance is designed to be distinct from other comparison signs, so readers can distinguish it quickly. In teaching, students encounter it alongside similar operators that show steps, succession, or hierarchy in a calculation. In programming and data tools, the symbol can help express rules, constraints, or preferences in conditions. Because it is part of standard math notation, authors often rely on it to convey precise meaning without long explanations. Overall, the symbol serves as a clear, compact marker for a particular kind of relation in both formulas and interfaces.

Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+2ABA 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.
