Strict Subset

[Aethelwulf]

How do you write a strict subset symbol in latex?

[studiot]

Well I had a go but couldn't find how to do it.

 

I can certainly draw the symbols in MathType, but it won't create Tex from them, although it will create a pastable entry for Wiki and Google.

All from here - The Comprehensive Latex symbol list its a direct link to a 4.2megabyte pdf with everything

Done it. Thanks

quick latex protips

 

1.. you can always see how another member has implemented latex by clicking on the formula - this should bring up a little box with the code

 

2.. to put a latex code in plainsight (without need for banjaxing it somehow) you can use the noparse tags.
