The Unicode Standard encodes almost all standard characters used in mathematics. [1] Unicode Technical Report #25 provides comprehensive information about the character repertoire, their properties, and guidelines for implementation. [1]
In general, the subscript 0 indicates a value taken from the null hypothesis, H 0, which should be used as much as possible in constructing its test statistic. ... Definitions of other symbols: Definitions of other symbols:
