unstrict inequality signs (less-than or equals to sign and greater-than or equals to sign) 1670 (with the horizontal bar over the inequality sign, rather than below it) John Wallis: 1734 (with double horizontal bar below the inequality sign) Pierre Bouguer

The less-than sign with the equals sign, <=, may be used for an approximation of the less-than-or-equal-to sign, ≤. ASCII does not have a less-than-or-equal-to sign, but Unicode defines it at code point U+2264. In BASIC, Lisp-family languages, and C-family languages (including Java and C++), operator <= means "less than
A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various types, many symbols are needed for ...
The asterisk on <* is used to distinguish this inequality from the familiar version of <. The <* is required for sets of numbers: If x is any real number, and { } is the null set, a<*{ } is taken to be a true statement.
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 ...
A linear inequality contains one of the symbols of inequality: [1] < less than > greater than; ≤ less than or equal to; ≥ greater than or equal to; ≠ not equal to; A linear inequality looks exactly like a linear equation, with the inequality sign replacing the equality sign.
