Might have something to do with "nets".
:dontknow:
hmmm let me b serious now... i think its d sign for "Succeeds"
yeah, it stands for succeeds. the opposite stands for preceeds, but what does it strictly mean? Is it an inequality symbol? Or...? lol, this is bugging. i can't seem to find what it means anywhere :((
u mean >= it means "greater than or equal to" we can say that ex, x >=x, x+1 >= x
sir, you're a genius!

That symbol (and the opposite) is used for ordering mathematical objects, such as directed sets for defining things like nets. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_(mathematics) The easiest example of nets would be to consider all neighbourhood sets N_x of a point x in a general topological space. They can be partially ordered (using the inclusion as the defining property of ordering) and a sequence of one point in each of them would form a net. So basically, the symbol defines order on something other than pure numbers (in this case, partial order on sets).

hey i know something about this. its like related to relations. dont know my this much knowledge is helping u out or not but all i know about succeeds is, The relationship x succeeds (or follows) y is written x≻y. The relation x succeeds or is equal to y is written x≻=y. so i think its operator for relations when one relation is following some other relation or something like that. i hope this info helped u. :nervous: i'll try to find more info on this.

THANKS BUNCHES TO BOTH OF YOU!!!! :icflove: ok, it's just order relation then.
