\leLess Than or Equal To Sign (≤) — Copy & Paste
The less-than-or-equal-to sign for inequalities in proofs, code comments, and papers.
What does ≤ mean?
The ≤ sign means “less than or equal to”: the value on the left is smaller than, or the same as, the value on the right. For example, n ≤ 10.
How ≤ differs from < and <=: ≤ allows equality, while < means strictly less than. In plain-text code, <= is a two-character operator rather than the Unicode ≤ sign.
