1. Strict inequality between two numbers; means and is read as "less than". 2. Commonly used for denoting any strict order. 3. Between two groups, may mean that the first one is a proper subgroup of the second one. > (greater-than sign) 1. Strict inequality between two numbers; means and is read as "greater than". 2.
The less-than sign is a mathematical symbol that denotes an inequality between two values. The widely adopted form of two equal-length strokes connecting in an acute angle at the left, < , has been found in documents dated as far back as the 1560s.
Mathematical Operators is a Unicode block containing characters for mathematical, logical, and set notation.. Notably absent are the plus sign (+), greater than sign (>) and less than sign (<), due to them already appearing in the Basic Latin Unicode block, and the plus-or-minus sign (±), multiplication sign (×) and obelus (÷), due to them already appearing in the Latin-1 Supplement block ...

The greater-than sign is a mathematical symbol that denotes an inequality between two values. The widely adopted form of two equal-length strokes connecting in an acute angle at the right, > , has been found in documents dated as far back as 1631. [ 1 ]
Other conventions are less common: Common Lisp and Macsyma/Maxima use Basic-like operators for numerical values, except for inequality, which is /= in Common Lisp and # in Macsyma/Maxima. Common Lisp has multiple other sets of equality and relational operators serving different purposes, including eq , eql , equal , equalp , and string= . [ 6 ]
