Editing Equals sign (section)

===Not equal===
The symbol used to denote [[inequation]] (when items are not equal) is a [[Slash (punctuation)|slashed]] equal sign {{char|≠}} (U+2260). In [[LaTeX]], this is done with the "\neq" command.

Most programming languages, limiting themselves to the [[ASCII|7-bit ASCII]] [[character set]] and [[QWERTY|typeable characters]], use {{code|1=~=}}, {{code|1=!=}}, {{code|1=/=}}, or {{code|<>}} to represent their [[Boolean logic|Boolean]] [[inequality operator]].
