Add U+2261 "≡" #13

Closed dvn0 closed 4 years ago

dvn0 commented 4 years ago

The triple bar appears to be missing from the unicode db.

arp242 commented 4 years ago

It seems to work:

$ uni p u+2261
     cpoint  dec    utf-8       html       name
'≡'  U+2261  8801   e2 89 a1    &equiv;    IDENTICAL TO (Math_Symbol)

Why do you think it's missing?

dvn0 commented 4 years ago

Oh, it's because the name isn't "triple bar". Also I didn't search the u+2261 the correct way... oops!

Thanks.

Yeah, some names are perhaps a bit unintuitive and inconsistent. Sometimes, they're semantic (like "identical to"), other times they're descriptive (like "leftwards arrow").

As far as I can find, Unicode doesn't maintain list of aliases for this; the CLDR (#11) only has them for emojis.

Also I didn't search the u+2261 the correct way... oops!

How did you search for it?
