Icon Request: Mathematical icons

[monemihir]

This is useful again when we specify a library version dependancy i.e <= .NET 4, or >= MVC3.

Also if there are any mathematical equations that need to be represented on a page using a proper less than equal to sign would look much better than using <=.

• icon-divide
• icon-less-than
• icon-greater-than
• icon-less-than-equal
• icon-greater-than-equal
• icon-equal

[buttjer]

agree, best as normal, -sign and -sign-alt like plus and minus

[aaronsingline]

I couldn't actually believe (and still can't) that there is no divide option.

[mrsof]

+1 for equal sign at least

[mcuznz]

+1 for Equal Sign

[awci]

Issue was opened May 21, 2013, and still no fa-equals or fa-divide....?

@princeofnaxos these are not issues, these are requests

If you need these icons, please consider a custom build of font awesome. You can use fontello.com or icomoon.io

Moreover, since those symbols are part of the unicode set in most fonts, you could also consider a solution like the following one: http://jsfiddle.net/tagliala/77re29ct/

Right, issue or request..... Point is that there are many who request
this, so I would consider doing it.

Thing against your suggested solution is that, when using an icon picker
(such as bootstrap-iconpicker), the icons are not there. Of course, one
could edit font-awesome.css and add them, but that is not a very elegant
solution. When updating, one would have to add them again.

Therefor I suggest to add the requested icons and create a
'mathematical' set of icons.

With best regards,

@princeofnaxos I can guarantee that Dave takes in consideration the most popular requests before each minor or major release of fontawesome.

At the moment there are many other request more popular (and older) than this one: https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues?q=is%3Aissue+sort%3Acomments-desc+

As you can see, part of the above requests was addressed in 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2.

If you need these icons and you need them now, you should really consider a fork, a custom build or a little bit of extra CSS

Hope it helps

Mathematical characters have in character maps, don't need icon.

[princeofnaxos]

@rodrigojob When using the HTML entities, there is likely to be a problem with alignment with other FA icons. Therefor, I think it'd be better to have fa-plus, fa-divide, etc.

Firstly, thanks for all the free icons available for usage.

Secondly, FontAwesome 5 is out and I still can't find the divide icon? Any chance this is in the pipeline?

[figloalds]

I needed divide and multiply icons. "solved" it with ÷ (&divide;) and × (&times;)
it was ugly and shameful. But it worked.

[hybrid1969]

+1 for all Arithmetic/Algebraic signs
Main reason is to allow for simplicity and unification of methods as I use FA for nearly all icons so they match.

[jwmxyz]

+1 for fa-equals

[sensibleworld]

We're working hard on new icons, and these are in the queue!
